Haiku – Seaweed

Posted by on Oct 8, 2017 in Haiku

My hull cuts the water
pillars of green sway – current
fish swim the forest

This haiku is trying to capture the experience of kayaking through pristine water that was overrun with seaweed (water grass).  It was crazy to me, I could hear the plant life scraping on the hull as I looked down and watched fish darting through the forest beneath me.  I will always remember those trips across the underwater forest.  I want to find it again.
