aqua water swirls
salt sprayed air licks dry sea oats
quick pelican gulps

just laughing at what andrea said below, 'flip' I did! this was probably the most technically correct of them all, but the good thing is that you managed to avoid the flat dullness that imbues so much technically correct haiku, and instead you wrote something colourful, lively and interesting! congrats on your 1st place win :)
