sunrise…
the firebird flies past
my window
.
What do you mean, what’s the firebird?

See this post for an explanation of what this is.
See the NaHaiWriMo website.
See the NaHaiWriMo Facebook page, and contribute haiku there if you want. (It doesn’t have to have anything to do with this prompt. It’s just a suggestion.)
Machines and robots – this is good.

Okay, great starting place …. how about
spring construction
my wife’s power drill
in harmony with mine
or

these are pretty rough … I’m just going for avoiding three separate phrases — usually you want two in haiku; even one is generally better than three, which scatters the reader’s attention too much. Focus, focus. 🙂
I do seem to be in a three phrase rut. Thanks for the suggestions and the careful reading.
