You forgot "sleeping with the fishes," "plenty of fish in the sea," and my personal favorite "one fish two fish red fish blue fish" - but great haiku, Gershon!

'Great minds think alike,' as they say. I actually considered the 2nd and 3rd expressions you mentioned before deciding on what was included in the haiku. Glad you felt that the haiku still had merit though. Thank you, Michelle, as always. :) gw

Hey, P.M.R., thank you for visiting my site and checking out the Haikus. Hope you found them as-easy-to-read as 'shooting fish in a barrel!' Thanks again! Best wishes, Gershon

Thanks, Maureen, and glad to hear it! As for the poem, maybe not-so-great, eh? It was a 3:00 a.m. job. Couldn't sleep. Winter's icy fingers...Bwa-ha-ha-. :) gw
