Haiku Friday: Peaceful Solitude
Friday, July 18, 2008 at 08:03AM 
Hey, can you hear that?
No? Lean in close and listen.
You hear anything?
The sound of my kids...
Whining, fighting and crying?
Are you sure? Nothing?
Just peace and quiet...
I have all day to myself.
They just drove away.
No big plans really.
A few errands and cleaning…
quicker by myself.
I can work in peace.
Perhaps watch Days of Our Lives.
Maybe take a nap?!
A day to myself.
One day is just long enough
to rest and recharge.

Oh my. A day by myself. I wouldn't know what to do. Probably watch TV all day. I'm just that lame. Have fun!
I'm spoiled rotten right now when it comes to having time alone, and I love every minute of it because I know that when it's over, I will totally miss the freedom and solitude. Still, it will be nice not to be alone, either, so both ways are not all bad. Hope you enjoy and do a little of something plus a little of nothing, just because you can. :)
Oh, a nap! I'm so jealous!!
Great haiku. YAY for some alone time!
