Downstream Due

ocean rhythms swayed
                          world wide weather makers
                                  unforgiving seas

Unforgivably great Haiku! ---Well, on second thought, "all is forgiven"---even those 'unforgiving seas'---just love that phrasing! Congrats on your win, Maureen! :) gw

Congratulations Maureen! I agree, a powerful haiku, but, unforgiving is a metaphor suggesting the sea has the power of reason, oh if only! :-)

Thank you Mick! Grasshopper gleans wisdom and direction. I knew that line was pushing it, cliche?Appetite whet for the next. If the sea had reason, we wouldn't stand a chance! ;)

Oh the swaying oceans in rhythm , wow what a witty super haiku indeed, describes a lot in brevity. Kudos. Soo nice to read from your pen again. I luv interaction in this cold world, Pleez add your thoughts/comment to my newest poem too, or this world feels too robotic ah
