Two Haiku: "Cleaning" and "Sea World"

[halfshellvenus]

Two haiku
For writerverse

Cleaning
Foreign contamin-
there. And there. Streaks, germs, grime-who?
Walle. Nemesis!

Sea World
Waves whisper wetly
above stillness. Dark kingdoms
rule the depths below.

Beautiful. I'm glad that you decided to write haiku. Try tanka next - 5,7,5,7,7.

Thank you!

I thought about tanka, but when I looked up the form, it seemed to warrant something with deeper themes/etc. than I was prepared to write here. Though that second one... I did consider it.

Come to think of it, haiku should probably be more serene than that first one, but I just couldn't resist. :D
