I really like this. The analogy of the seagulls call and the salty tears was good and affinity was the perfect word choice. I also love the word ambience. (even that was in your notes) I shall think of this when I next hear a seagull.

Thank you for for the review review and kind words.

Comment from Dean Kuch
Lovely.
I guess it is safe to assume that the melancholy protagonist in this well presented and constructed haiku feels a likeness to the crying gulls because they themselves feel like crying too.
Beautiful presentation, sensational word economy.
Breathtakingly beautiful...

Comment from Lu Saluna
This is a beautiful haiku.
The sound of seagulls is beautiful. I don't live as close to the water as I used to when I lived in Victoria. I miss the sound of the seagulls.
Your satori is perfect.
Doug will be very happy
