Hunt a Haiku Challenge

Haiku 02
the sun will set slow
people go home for shelter
sun will rise again

   People work hard every day.  Some slog through their jobs, as others joyfully romp through their tasks.  Hours pass.  Chores come and go.  Deadlines are met.  Eventually the sun begins to set.  The sun will set slow.  

    The people go home for shelter.  Away from the hustle and bustle of their busy day.  No more pressure of the job, demands from the boss or work stress.  Just change the clothes, wash up, eat a good meal, and relax.  Time to unwind.  That’s what I long to do at the end of my work day.  Eventually late night arrives, and it’s time for bed.  The people climb in, knowing  well that the sun will rise again.  This is a good thing, for it means they are among the living.  Yet at the same time, it means another day of marching through work and the challenges that presents.  We go round and round, waiting yet again for that sun to set slow.
