Love unsure, a most uncomfortable situation to be in, I think if we feel that way it cannot be true, comparing it to the ebb and flow of the sea is very clever, very well written and presented****kahpot

This was a very astute poem. Comparing the ocean tides to a lover who goes from committing totally to only partially. It was clever and sets your writing over many others. The ability to plant a seed in the readers head and to do it with so few words is quite a talent. Gretchen

Thank you very much, Gretchen. I appreciate your encouraging and kind review. I love haiku because it's such visual poetic form and hopefully with an effective satori. It doesn't always happen. I enjoy the challenge. :)

What a great haiku, Gypsy. The dual pictures show the sea washing up with the tide, in and out. Your words showed the ebb and flow of the tide that reflected in your words. Blessed Be n Hugs!!!

Oh, so true, love flows much like the tides. Great metaphors using tides and love. Even though my husband and I have been married over 45 years we have high and low tides. Just need to ride the waves. Thank you for sharing.

Hola Marival,
Me encantan todos tus haikus y me recuerdas a mí misma. Creo que somos un par de románticas.
It's lovely to be back and to read you again. I hope to make some time for FS from now on.
Besos.

That's too bad that there are such high tides and low tides in that sea of love. It's best if there is not such dramatic changes. But I guess for some, the placid lake of predictable and steadfast love may be too boring.

I used to like the highs....not the lows but hurt a lot....now I would be happy with calm waters.

I'm at a fair in Los Angeles and it's super hot. :(

Thank you very much big sister. ❤️

I like it. I was expecting wavering lower. but it's lover, and the word wavering is just perfect. You have done a very good job with a limited palette and I congratulate you.
