river silver –
daringly in rapid’s foam
a salmon leaps

pink delicacy
sliced with master skill
served with sake

  1. Since English your second language, you might want to consider
    You might want to change first line to “silver river” since ‘silver’ is adjective. Or you might want to give river
    a verb, like “river slivers” which would go with your next line since you are using an adverb ( daringly).

  2. oh, this is really fantastic – salmon sashimi and sake! oh, i forgot, not at a restaurant to eat, this is haiku, a wonderful set, by the way. 😉
