Category: the year in haiku

Small but important
A thousand choices each day
Waiting to be made

Treasured above all,
The gift of love is priceless;
It cannot be bought

Do not waste effort
Where you have no influence
What will be, will be

Trust intuition;
You may just surprise yourself
When it works out right

Rise up to meet it,
The unexpected challenge;
Seize the chance to grow

Open heart and mind
So much waiting to be learnt
If you look for it

Through patient application
What began as a new chore 
Has become a habit

You can’t do it all
Sometimes you have to let go
Choose what matters most

Don’t skimp on rest time
A tired body cannot cope
Injuries ensue

Don’t judge unfairly;
Be reasoned in your thinking
See things from both sides

Early morning chills
Wrap up warm against the cold
Keep those tails wagging

The silent rhythm
Underpinning existence;
Inhale and exhale…

Steadily onwards
Tread the path with confidence
And an open heart

When results elude 
Change the path and not the goals
Find a surer way

Remove obstacles
Quietly and without fuss
No need to fluster
