Ragged rows of gulls
perched windward, the break-water
magnetized.

Oh I do like this.
Do you like creating Haiku? You are so good at it.

:) Thank-you...I often write in that image-intensive/minimalist vein, though it is not always formally haiku. But, yes, I do enjoy it -- I generally find that words get in the way of the poem (if that makes any sense), so I try to use as few a possible! :)
