Comment from The Cowboy Poet
It seems I'm running into a lot of your poetry tonight and that's fine with me. You handle a lot of different forms well. You have a good command of language and syntax and this is essential for good poetry. This must be your sea theme poetry, being the second I have read tonight on that subject. I like the alliteration of the "s" sound which also fits in with the subject of the sea. I'm never disappointed when I read your poetry. Rhymeman, the cowboy poet.

Comment from Lady & Louis
Pattypattypatty pat - I have never heard of cat's paws relating to the sea, but I love the image! (Imagine the cat pulling its paws back, too - "Nobody told me that stuff was WET!")
Lovely haiku, Brooke, thank you for posting!
Louise :))

Ah, now this one was wonderful. The words trip along, sketching a strong mental image. Perfect 5-7-5 form, and the last line sums it up very well. Nice job.

This must be part of an adventures in the sea series. My father was a navyman and I had no idea what cat paws reference was. Thanks for teaching and sharing once again.

Comment from tony bronk
Your poetry is always a delight for me and I don't recall one that I actually disliked. Our relationship has taken us both to a new level of mutual senses and, I am thankful for that. I now felt different reading this poem, following your last. It's wonderful to leave the familiar and to go to new and exciting places! Thank you tony

Comment from LynnRadford
Nice job of using the dual usage to your advantage, creating a poem that takes time to digest and comprehend.
I personally learned something today.
For that, I thank you.

P.S. Have you made plans to head for the open waters yet? Or are you content with the dreaming?

Lynn, thanks so much. I would head for the open waters tomorrow if I had the money. That is all that is stopping me, believe me! Brooke

Hi Pearly One,
What a totally charming haiku... really extraordinary and not run of the mill! I really enjoyed your author's notes too. Yes, I agree... it is the "cat's paws" days that I prefer too. :-)
Thanks for sharing this entertaining, fun poem.

Comment from mstad55
This one threw me. I was not familiar with the expression so the Haiku made no sense to me. The explaination in your notes saved the day. Oh what a cute little poem. Our cat likes to make waves in the water bowl, and daily there are waves in my life that make things exciting, the drama is tonight on American Idol. Oh Boy, I can hardly wait. I think it's oil riggers week to get the boot. mstad55

Comment from wazzo
Well I have learned three new things today Cats paws, caprice and the fact that capillary is more than blood vessels. I just had not got a clue as to what the first line was about but thanks to your notes and my Websters dictionary, I can say that's an Haiku. Well done
