Category: the year in haiku

Listen to your gut
Act without hesitation
Have faith in yourself

Adversity calls;
What is it saying to you?
Try to understand

Abilities stretched:
Surprised by what you fit in
Feel how you have grown

For you and others
No peace without forgiveness
Find room in your heart

Reactive impulse
Can be mindfully transformed
To thoughtful response

Inspect your failings
Acknowledge and understand
Then you can forgive

Keep chipping away
Patience and perseverance
The keys to success

A well deserved rest
Recuperate and recharge
Ready to restart

In all your actions
Do you do yourself justice,
Or sell yourself short?

A little effort
Steadily applied each day
Will build for success

Steadily rebuild
Replace the old and worn out
Evolve steadily

Golden leaves crumble
Earthy aromas rise up
Wafting through damp air

Rise up to the task
Search within for the answers
Be calm and listen

Be unshakeable
Others can’t effect your stride
Unless you let them

Surprise and wonder:
Always be on the lookout
Hidden gems await
