Had Found a Great Place To Eat

If you do not like
my poems let me know so I
can stop sending them

home of free and brave
we remember when God gave
his love and would save

while we were watching
bird had flown high and overhead
glided across sky

each time when we were
lying down and then sleeping
dreams came to our minds

decided to do 
all the things which we wanted
took away our breath

had been bored to death
news always was a nuisance
really bothered by

at times was cranky
much anguish and am upset
sure sign of the times

had hair cut again
looks really great in mirror
a real barn burner

bought another pet
we had brought him home with us
so cute and cuddly

went out to breakfast
after finding great restaurant
where we like to eat

building going on
noise flying through the air
nails being hammered

walls had been put up
where they would be raised
God we always praised

we had all gone home
shadows had started to show
quiet came at last

when they lied and lied
where swept over by high tide
we had cried and cried

Have found it to be fun writing my Horn Haiku.
