Hi Gypsy Queen,
I love the metaphor squeezed into this tiny-little shell... crawls digging into my thoughts as I think of the parity between your subject matter and real life.

The clever construction in composition of word-play... caught in a moody tide,, and the sotori walking on seashells... as we do so often in life around situations or people who make us self conscious to our natural flow.

Yes, my Queen, Very clever and something that again has me staring into space in thought about what I've just read. You have a way of taking me into situations where what you write about relates.

It's a true talent!

With our thoughts we create...
safe environments.

Kind regards,
James.

    Thank you very much, King James {*<>*}

    It's always a pleasure to read your exceptional reviews, the six stars rating is icing on the cake, when it comes from you. You tend to understand my poems well. I'm happy you appreciate haiku and senryu. I love this kind of poetry. A good satori can take us places in our mind.

    I like your quote, it's so true... with our thoughts we can be in turmoil or in peace, it's our choice.

This is just delightful, and clever. I enjoyed this tying "walking on seashells" with "walking on eggshells.
Very well done haiku.
Best wishes and regards,
Mary

A great haiku and an amazing picture of the hermit crab, Gypsy. I loved your words because they did show that beneath the ocean or sea the same words apply. Great job, well done, greatly enjoyed. Blessed be n hugs!

I got the reference! Even before reading your author's notes! Perhaps because I have been walking on eggshells with certain people for years!!!

Clever, you!

Lol! Yes, those tides are moody sometimes. I like your "walking on seashells" to resemble "walking on eggshells" which we do when we want to avoid setting a moody person off.

Hermit crabs are the best! They are the ultimate shell stealers, lol. This is a perfect poem to showcase how they walk on shells. I love it, GBR. Best, JohnC
