Haiku

December 25

SAdly, Christmas is being spent on the couch with a fever and chills.  This was a gift I received last night.  Reading this is sadly the closest I'm getting to being creative.

Haiku says it all.

I'm trying to get ready for a trip to Italy.  No time to stop and be overly creative.

Haikus.  Still very tired.

First attempt at non-Haiku poetry.  Not good.  I didn't even really want to post it.  I was obviously not in a good mood.

Haikus:
Small furry purr box
Sleeps and purrs at the same time
How do you do that?

Couch is magnetic
Often holds me here in place
It's just so comfy

Haiku

Feel like I am lost
Need to choose a direction
Think I am floundering

General malaise
Got to get out of the house
Gotta clear my head

Trying to have faith
The universe is testing
Things will get better

It's been a rough few weeks.  Between being sick myself and dealing with two sick kittens I've been really struggling.  I know things will get better.  I like that to happen sooner rather than later.

More fun with Haiku.  They read:

Sick little kittens
Just want them to get better
Purring on my lap

Tired tired done
Desperate to unload some stress
Need to restore health

Cicadas are loud
To me they serve no purpose
A feast for the birds

More haikus.  They're mostly about being tired.  I'm hoping to catch up on sleep this weekend.

1.  Too tired today
     The stress has caught up with me
     Can I take a nap?

2. Tired of the rain
    Can we please have the sun back
    The heat you can keep

3. Give me a blanket
    A quiet dark place to rest
    Teachers need naps too

June 18

Haiku time again.  They are as follows:

1.  Craziness abounds
     Preschool is not for sissies
     They are funny though

2. Bad throbbing headache
    They won't stop calling my name
     I still love my job

3. Oh blessed nap time
    Some days much too slowly comes
    I long for quiet
