Great haiku Robert, and I particularly enjoyed the clever inversion of the usual 5-7-5 (or rather, short-long-short) format to match the subject of the poem. The middle line "calm" is perfect! And of course the hourglass effect would have been even better if HTML code allowed it to be displayed in a "centered" format.

So clever — love the "calm" in the middle…
