Ahh I see what you meant about the final line of a haiku; apparently I need to find more thorough information on haiku. There was one here who was very knowledgeable on the original haiku form; but I do not believe he comes around anymore. Thank you Victor :)

Cry me a river, had to look this up, written by Arthur Hamilton, so all the mega rich people who have so many diamonds must have cried buckets of tears. Great write my friend. Hugs an Blessings, Jennifer.

'Cry me a river' from the master Haiku poet is a marvelous 'aha' point, the distinguishing sign of a haiku. Great.
