My Kind of Haiku

#1

Happy dogs greet me

Work day is finally over

Thankful to be home

#2

Clinched teeth rigid stance

Appear calm but look closer

Dogs mimic me

#3

Evening turns to night

Fireflies glowing in the yard

Rest is coming soon

# 4

Midday storm brewing

Thunder heard then lightning strikes

Ducking for cover

#5

Best friend gives advice

Helping me cope with turmoil

As we ponder life

#6

Overwhelming me

I have a soul sucking job

How will I survive?

#7

The struggle is real

Will calm and clarity win

What can bring relief?

#8

Listening to quiet

So much is said from nothing

Need to stop and hear

#9

Happiness is here

Buried deep within my core

The beach will restore

#10

Beach revived my thoughts

Have let work stress creep back in

There is more to life

#11

Will I sink or swim?

Uncertain voyage ahead

Must be strong to float
