I had this one published in a haiku journal a year or two ago:

All day I listen.

The river tells me nothing

but catfish.

(the 5-7-5 rule isn't followed in English, generally, but I almost did by accident)

You may submit as many entries as you wish. Again, one only per post, pleeez. When the entries start winding down I'll take a call for nominations, and then put up the poll.

Riffles left behind

Spread from Maine to Florida

Only two darters

(yes, ok, the tesselate does not quite reach Maine, but you get my point. Only still water darters could ride stream capture up and down the whole east coast)
