Category: the year in haiku

Take yourself outside
Feel the warmth of the sunshine
Let it recharge you

Groundwork has been laid
Long months of preparation
Now comes the reward

Always cause to smile
See in each disappointment
That you made it through

Intricate details
Mindfully attended to
With care and patience

Tireless companions
Walking loyally beside
Heads high, tails wagging 

Interconnected
The eternal cycles run
Beating their rhythms

No damage too great
Even trampled grass can bloom
There is always hope

Much more than just sounds
Words are tools to build the world
Assemble with care

One path, full presence
Be mindful and committed
Sure, unwavering

Plan with clarity
Silence, vision and structure
Role, code, direction

All that you have learned
All that you assimilate
Try hard not to lose

Enjoy the journey
The unadvertised detours
Unplanned bonuses

Remain undaunted
Believe that you can do it
And so it shall be

Take the first step now
Why wait for some better time
There may not be one

Relax with your friends
Unwind and recharge your soul
God knows you’ve earned it
