   I like the lightness of the first two lines and the density of the last one.

   I enjoyed your haiku very much. It zipped me right back to childhood, and Gaby's comment above is spot on.

   A beautiful haiku with the touch of lightness (karumi).

   tiny shells–
   kids carry home
   the joy of sea

   *****
   the kids play and dance
   under the twilight sky
   counting the waves
   and counting the stars
   return with a pocketful of shells

   Lovely haiku, refreshing and evocative. Mary Jo and Gaby's thoughts also mirror my own.

   collecting shells
   a child's-eye view
   of wealth
