The first one is a catalog poem. the second one is a weather compared to an animal. the third one is a haiku about nature. Are they okay if not do you have any suggestions on how I can fix them?

Catalog Poem
Daily


Getting out of bed everyday,
smelling the fresh air.
Eating a tasty breakfast,
french toast dipped in syrup.
Going to School,
seeing my friends and completing my work.
When it turns 3pm,
going back home.


Extended Image
Thunder

It strikes as the dog howls.
It looks you in the eye and seems to frighten you.
You try to stay out of its way,
but it can still get you.
It has a loud shocking sound.
Its eyes are yellow; it glares at you stays a while,
then leaves after its done damage.


Haiku
Nature

Oh how fast trees grow
Like children, they grow so fast and
When we glare there gone.

Haiku
“Nature”
Natures all around,
It’s up high and down low, its
Everywhere we go!

you have a couple of mixed metaphors in the 'Thunder' poem.

Thunder doesn't strike, lightening does. Thunder rumbles, sounds, echoes, etc.

Thunder isn't visible but it can shout in your ear, whisper from a distance, growl it's anger in your ears, echo the fears of storms past, etc.

Thunder generally is born through the skies from darkened clouds.

Mispelling in your haiku of the personal possessive "they're" meaning they are.

you are doing o.k., just clean up your visual and mental imagery. hope that helps.

Not bad. You should try practicing how to convey an idea in as few words as possible to be able to get a good rhythm.
Otherwise it's a pretty good attempt if this is your first time. You should keep writing.

By the way, a haiku presents two diferrent images to convey a single idea in a just a single sentence or in the native Japanese language, in just 17 syllables.

Something like:
Silence fills the still night air, Breath... fill your lungs with silence.

I like them. I am puzzled by the use of the word "glare" in your Haiku, but it made me think a while.

I like the new haiku.
I'm not a big fan of poems like the first one, so I'm not going to critique.
I think your creativity shines in Thunder, but I agree with stonechick, on the critique.
