Where once was a hook through belly of one cricket now is hole of love A fish took the hook chewed it not harming cricket then set cricket free Cricket was happy Fish felt the friendship blossom now they play all day In sun they abound as rock offers the setting between land and sea Upon back of fish cricket shall have joyous ride protected from man |

Mark this is amazingly fantastic, now aren't you just too good, seems there's no stopping you! You meet all the challanges brilliantly. While I'm still trying to work out what it is, you've met it, and capped it. Ahh my friend I wonder if anyone dare challenge you, wouldn't it save time if I just laid the laurels at your feet. No because then I'd miss your so beautiful words, and I couldn't deny myself that pleasure. Magnificent, Take care Marsha  |

rosepetals25-Thanks it has been fun. Great responses from you BTW Marge and Karilea-You both need to find "the worm and the tadpole" and "the termite and the snail" to catch up....they are both by rosepetals25 from a challenge I left her on one of her poems. Have fun with them. |

Mark, it's a treat to watch you take challenges, for you not only meet them, but exceed them so exceptionally well. What a wonderful Haiku story ... such a sweetly heart-warming friendship you developed here, full of imagery. Very nicely done! Best wishes, /Kit |

Mark this is good, you and rosepetals could start a trend - storytelling in Haiku. It could be a viable proposition if you didn't go mad first. Imagine living the rest of your life being only able to haikuspeak. Scary.

Hi Mark, This is so cute and what a wonderful way to show how different spiecies can grow in to quiet loving friends. Love, Cerenity "God doesn't have to be reminded that we exist. We have to be reminded that He exist!" (Writer Unknown) |
