water’s edge
. . . briefly, the tracks
of a sandpiper
--
a snow goose
cups its wings to land—
curve of the shore

Two very nice haiku...
Time in "water's edge" is a bit slippery: like the tide, I guess. The moment has to be over before you can know it's brief. I like this very much.
And the forms suggested in "a snow goose" combine most elegantly.
Thanks Frank and Bill - Coming from the two of you, these are high compliments! Make my day!

A complimentary pairing. Water's edge in the 1st and curve of the shore in the 2nd. The dainty movements of the sandpiper and the ungainly movements of the goose. Great haiku, Warren.
Adelaide
Thanks Adelaide - I appreciate your comments!
