Haiku Pointers

Here are some recent haiku to enjoy! I often will write a haiku and copy it onto a tiny scrap of paper, carrying it with me for the day. Sometimes I will find it after forgetting it’s there and enjoy the discovery all over again. It’s also nice to leave the small scrap of paper on a desk at the office or school where someone else may discover and enjoy the tiny yet powerful pointer.


silence is the key
that opens the gateless gate,
nothing more to know


neutral yet vibrant
what appears is what it is
life does not practice


mind struck deaf and dumb
by the depth of True silence,
no grist for the mill
