Haiku Friday: Canine Zen

Ears flapping in the
wind, the dog smiles at me from
the car beside mine

A picture of pure
bliss riding down the highway,
head out the window

Sometimes I wish I
could be as happy as a
dog in a fast car

I drove past this car and its canine passenger this evening, and I was immediately mesmerized by the happiness and peace coming from this dog. I don’t know if there’s anything happier than a dog with its head out the window, tongue out and eyes closed to the rushing air. It’s probably as close as a dog can get to flying.

To play along for Haiku Friday, follow these steps:

1. Write your own haiku on your blog. You can do one or many, all following a theme or just random. What’s a haiku, you ask? Click here.

2. Sign the Mister Linky below with your name and the link to your haiku post (the specific post URL, not your main blog URL). DON’T sign unless you have a haiku this week. If you need help with this, please let me know.

3. Pick up a Haiku Friday button to display on the post or in your sidebar by clicking the button at the top.

REMEMBER: Do not post your link unless you have a haiku this week! I will delete any links without haiku!

  4. Would that human life could be as uncomplicated as (cared-for) canine life. Hey-ho!

  5. Great ‘ku!

    I just realized that I think my dogs are the only two in the world that don’t stick their heads out of the window…weird.

  6. Isn’t THAT the truth! One reason I love living with dogs is that they keep ME living in the present moment even as life’s issues close in!
    Hugs and blessings,

  7. That’s a sight that always makes me smile!

  8. They are funny creatures, aren’t they? Especially with flappy lips and ears.
