rider bridled wave
carving through the curving crown -
ebullient sea smiled

Super haiku. Reminds me of days long ago surfing Cocoa Beach and Long John's surf shop was nothing more than a whole in the wall.

This haiku made me smile just like the sea, Jenish. Next time I see a wave, I will think of a smile! Congratulations on your winning placement!

Just a picturesque panorama's panoply of imagery here, Jenish! Wow! So much to sense in just three lines!... And cry me a river, will ya, if I've seen a wave on a river like that one! Wow! Bravo, Gershon

The rider looks like he is trapped in a violent vortex and enjoying the voyage... It's an awesome Haiku... Thank you, Jenis....

if the sea was human I wonder if it would smile knowing it made it not only rough for the rider , but also see him enjoy himself and make it. Love the imagery. Hugs Eve
