Get things off your chest - in Haiku!

[roarfeckingroar]

I'll start

I wish you were home
Not because I miss your face,
But ‘cause the bin smells

Autistic DS
Struggling without his routines
I just need a break

A comms plan you say?
But my brain is mush and fog
Can't I snooze instead?

Unexpected friend
Never thought we could connect
Thanks for phoning me!

DVD menu
It’s repeating endlessly
Can’t be arsed to move

Thanks roarfeckingroar
Bored at home with 2 year old
This thread made my day! :o

killing them quickly
bubbling in the fairy
aphid cessation

Chalk on the pavement
Rainbows for the NHS
Our street looks cheerful

But inside the homes
How many are struggling?
Afraid to say so

Too much wine last night
Had a headache this morning
Tea to the rescue

Former toxic “friend”
Life without bumping into
You is much better!

I should do housework
Or something else productive
Sofa’s too comfy

Eldest back in school
Only told a few close friends
Scared of rumours’ spread

Mouse on the decking
Adorable to observe
But... infestation?!

One more day to go
Homeschool break sorely needed
Not DS - but me!

Enjoying this thread
A little too much perhaps
Sorry for waffling

You're welcome @LaneBoy ! I've done zero work today but I have written to all my friends and my partner solely in Haikus.

Browsing on Mumsnet
Many people getting cross
Maybe close the app?

Amazon came through
Twins now have some plastic food
Cleaning should be fun

What a lovely thread
I have to nominate it
To go in Classics

The house is a mess
Toys, clothes and craft everywhere
Motivation nil

My children are loud,
My floor is covered in mud,
My hair, falling out

So soft and fluffy
Purring loudly on my lap
Sleepy little cat

2nd haiku thread
Called boris a cunt before
This thread is kinder

(But still think boris is a cunt!)

Unexpected joys
To be found in lockdown but
Omg, so fat!

DD says 'ta-toe'
She is fond of tomatoes
I melt, she's so cute

Boris has his flaws
But this crisis hits us all
Answers are not clear

DS says 'blo-kee'
Because he likes broccoli
He makes me so proud ☺️

Toddlers are so great
Cute words keep me sane, but still
Hair will go grey soon

Hijacking this thread
Many haikus come to mind
Someone stop me, please

No more room at school
Son with me till September
Secretly happy

I do, indeed, love my children
But Hiding in the bedroom
Is blessed relief!

Enjoying extra
Drinking way too much. Must stop.
Bugger it - pass wine!

Appreciate all
The amazing things about
H. Till I kill him
