Congratulations on your gold medal win Gershon! Vampire squid just recently watched a program on these monsters of the deep, named after their colour, not their habit. Great haiku... Mick

Mick, I am grateful to you for the opportunity to really s-t-r-e-t-c-h my poetry-haiku skills that you gave me, and all of us Soupers, with this challenging contest. I worked very hard at it, and your notification of a 1st place finish brings joy to my heart and, yes, a trace of a tear to the corner of my eye...Thank you, thank you. Best wishes, Gershon

Thanks, Line! ---Sometimes I have to fish these out of muddy waters, mix up the ingredients, and then eventually out comes a 'fine kettle of fish.' :) gw
