This is an interesting summer haiku. (Note: Quick SPAG nitpick: Title: lover's fight - First line: lovers' fight. You probably meant for the punctuation to be consistent, to make the meaning clear.) Good luck to you, Jeanie Mercer

The haiku has correct syllables at 2-6-4
(12 is good since minimal is best)
It has good grammatical connection
Sunny beach and crab fight are strong concrete images
Tense is good
Very good satori line with referral back to the crab
This is much better, in my opinion
Well done
Good luck in the contest

    I changed my haiku, could you check it out?

    I checked it again and changed the rating to a five. I think this one is much stronger, in my opinion. I was afraid you would be DQed for the alliteration in the first one. I think this haiku could be the winner! Good luck!

This is a good summer haiku for the prompt. Good imagery in the interconnected lines. The satori isn't real powerful though in my opinion and doesn't really have imagery.
