Selection of Aspirational Haiku
High mountain valleys
Never glimpse the red sunrise
Reflecting on the peaks.
High mountain summits
Don’t embrace the noon-day sun
Like lush, green valleys.
People of high thoughts
Don’t yield to cultivation
Like wide, open plains.
The pine tree grows tall
Because it is straight; Balanced,
Because it is round.
A person goes far
Because she has clear ideals
And keeps well attuned.
Life is a mountain.
You can’t always see the peak,
But you know it’s there.
Living is a climb.
Knowledge is the hook and rope.
Wisdom is the way.
