I am not one for haiku, back in school I was turned off from them. May be because I had such a hell of a tim writing them. I must say that I do like your.

tikkis: thanks, I imagine that a search in the North Sea would involve high waves...

david: thank you for these kind words. I am pleased you like these haiku.

j: thanks.

jon: thank you, you are too kind!

Every sea can be very cruel one;
I had also an idea that even the smoothest seas have something to hide...
anyway, your 3-liner was very interesting, thanks for that.

tikkis: Thanks...yes, I had imagined the search plane flying over another tiny Pacific island and noting that who they were searching for was "not here". See my haiku #708 for another perspective on this event.

Sad and ominous overtones!

polona: I hadn't intended this to be a story...we'll see.

pat: Yes.
