Sunlight on the waves –
A miniature galaxy
Of fleeting stars.

Gorgeous response on ‘karumi’ Jackie and this has that ‘lightness’. I imagined what they call ‘the lightning of the sea’ algae in the water reflecting the light of the moon. Well done.

Thank you, Kristjaan. I wasn’t sure if it really fitted with the idea of karumi but I was struck recently by the sun sparkling on the sea and had wanted to get it into a haiku. Thank you for another wonderful prompt that got the creative juices flowing.
