Category: the year in haiku

Asking so little
Yet always giving so much
Thank you faithful pups

Remain positive
You can’t force recovery
Be patient, dig deep

Millions of choices
Each one adding to the last:
Life is what you choose

The body must heal
Allow it time to repair
It will not be rushed

Silence the bustle 
A time for self-reflection
What does it all mean?

The comforts of life:
Accept them with thanks and grace
Then share what you can

Stranger than fiction
Hidden truths of history
Buried in the clues

Look for life’s lessons
Mistakes should teach, not punish
A chance to improve

Keep the mind focused
Alone in contemplation
Without discomfort

Checklists completed
A busy week well ended
Time now to unwind

Unplanned but welcome
The unexpected small wins
Every little counts

Your destination:
So close, and yet still so far
Enjoy the journey

All the little gains
Can easily be undone
Without attention

Learn from your mentors;
Following in their footsteps
Show others the way

True enlightenment:
Observe the ordinary
See it with new eyes
