oh this is SO COOL. You should have put it in the fish contest. It would have been a sure bet.

Poor flirtatious clownie, you can't always get what you want and sometimes you don't know what you've got till it's gone.. :) Your haiku is just scrumptious Carolyn. I love clown fish and I love your clever haiku! Warmest wishes. ~Susan

I love the sense of humor, short but very effective, poor fish.
