The daily Haiku Reader

  Everyday Mindfulness Through the Seasons


There are moments in our lives that stay with us ever after. The way a leaf in autumn lingers, slowly slipping to the ground, or how the full-moon reflects off the water on a still summer night—these intimate moments of connection bring us closer to knowing ourselves and the world around us. They make us mindful of the present moment and bring awareness to our lives.


Sharing in such experiences is at the very heart of haiku. The Daily Haiku Reader walks us down a path of awareness through the changing seasons of the year. Each day, a new haiku strikes us with the beauty of nature in the present moment. These brief reflections serve to nourish us, make us mindful, and refresh our inner wellspring.


Golden sunset rays

Stream across the cloudless sky

Frozen hills aglow

Snowy woodland stream

Outer banks encased in ice

Center swift and mean

New dew dusted dawn

Awakens slumbering fawns

Tracks across wet grass

Delicate fern leaves

Shaded in the summer breeze

Nodding lazily

Grasshopper twilight

Springing from a bending weed

Lost in the darkness

Waving in the wind

The spider’s web blowing free Silently flapping

Midnight snow glows blue

Full moon in a cloudless sky

Cold silent glimmer

Just a bumblebee

Visiting all the blossoms

On an apple tree

Water starts to flow

Slowly filling dry creek beds

Soaking dusty ground

Seafoam green waters

Tucked between the rolling hills

Sunshine shimmering

New leaves on the ground

Turning from a bright yellow

To dark brittle brown

Full moon on birch trees

Wrapping around the white bark

Glowing brilliant blue
