Haiku lets me stop, if only for a few moments during my day, and reminds me to be present, to let myself feel. It reminds me to experience things fully instead of passively letting them wash over me. It calms and soothes me, like a brief moment of meditation that's not forced or contrived. Pointing at the moon Reminded of simple things Moments matter most         B.Y.
