Ghost Tides

Phantom haze hovers,
Dense fog silently creeping:
Illusive currents.

I like the action in this poem. Kind of pull the reader into it. I like the alliteration too. Keep on writing! Karen

This is such a creative piece you have written, the picture is set right in front of our eyes, it's the kind of night that we don't like lingering around us for long but you pen it masterfully. Was delighted to be placed in your last haiku competition, there are such great fun, Déirdre

I like the Phantom and ghost connection. The title is so perfect for the picture, and the verse is perfect for the title. So many great views from all participants enjoying your haiku contests. thank you..Margaret

Thank you so much, Raul, for the honor of doing well in your last contest! Looking forward to the next one...however, this will be a tough act to follow. Your haiku here, exceeds anything we might think of! But will be another fun challenge. Thanks for the inspirations and wonderful photographs to jump start our writings! Love, Carrie
