The Beach
April 19, 2012
The quick waves crash by
The bright moon glows in the dark
Sand crawls beneath me

When I read this, I get a clear image in my mind and I feel like I am actually at the beach

The imagery here is fantastic...I even feel the "beachy" climate. Well done.

Nice imagery here in such a short piece of writing; I also really like how it can be interpreted mayn different ways and doesn't have a set meaning

You've really set the scene in this haiku. I particularly liked the last line: "Sand crawls beneath me."

This is a really great haiku! I second everything that the others are saying. Great descriptive words! I hope you put some more work on here so we can read it! :)

I can only repeat what others say. It's amazing how such a simplistic poem can convey so much. Well done!

I love the vivid imagery you use in this haiku! Your way of describing the scene, "quick waves", "bright moon", really brings the scene to life. Keep up the great work! I have no criticisms.
