HAIKU POEMS OF L I F E

by the PoetPatriot,

Roger W Hancock

Life's not meant to be,

more than hungry, naked, broke;

your decision make.

~~~~~~~  

Life is what you wish,

beyond yourself you must stretch,

find your strength within. 

~~~~~~~  

Life stresses postal,

to cleanse troubles only need,

a super-soaker.

~~~~~~~  

Sunlight filtered clouds,

back lit trees to exercise,

imagination.

~~~~~~~  

Tiny Yorkshire pet,

the world revolves around her;

master of the home.

~~~~~~~  

Respect for others

to keep youthful crime at bay;

consideration.

~~~~~~~

Debts, bondage, much stress,

all for just a little joy,

discipline we lack.

~~~~~~~

yellow bird in cage,

limited exploration,

joy to those watching.
