Haikus by Your G2X and FedHealthIT team

In honor of International Haiku Day, your G2X and FedHealthIT team has decided to present something light and fun to brighten your day. This exercise may also give you a little insight to who we are outside of the Federal IT arena. We would love to hear your thoughts and welcome your own contributions in the comments section!

Wonders
By Susan Sharer
The wonders of Spring.
The bright colors abound.
Brings joy and new life.

April’s Promise
By Heather Seftel-Kirk
Summer sun not far.
Starry nights, campfires, long days.
Simple times for all.

Planets
By Amanda Schrauben
Planets in the sky.
Mercury, Venus, Earth, Mars.
Oops the rest won’t fit.

Sugar Rush
By Vicki Barstow
Jellybeans, small eggs
Colorful, mouth-watering
Decimated, now.

Coffee
By Jackie Gilbert
Smell entices me.
Tasty warm rich brown color.
My true morning friend.

Parent’s Gift
By Andréa Leichtman
The coo of babies.
The smiles of happy children.
A parent’s best gift.

Haikus
By Amanda Schrauben
Haikus can be fun.
Count the cadence one by one.
Five seven five done.

Puppies and Kittens
By Heather Seftel-Kirk
Cute, cuddly, silly.
Warm, unconditional love.
Wish it was raining them.

Cat
By Jackie Gilbert
Furry alarm clock.
Why must you be so damn loud.
Treats are my reprieve.

Learning Colors
By Amanda Schrauben
Red, orange, yellow.
Green, blue, indigo, violet.
Colors of the ‘bow.  

#MomProblems
By Beth Scalzitti
Helping with Math class.
No idea what to do.
High school Algebra.

Dawn
By Jackie Gilbert
Birds greet the new day.
I’m not a morning person,
Yet I am awake.

We Are
By Heather Seftel-Kirk
Colleagues, Partners, Friends.
Networking, Sharing, Driving.
Important Missions.

Nature’s Canvas
By Amanda Schrauben
Clouds float by up high.
Fluffy pictures to decode.
Look! What do you see?

Chocolate
By Heather Seftel-Kirk
Sweet, delicious, happy.
Tastes like childhood memory.
Not indulgence; need.

Tacos
By Jackie Gilbert
Tuesday is your day.
Deliciousness hugged by corn.
Who can resist you?

Our Wild Friends
By Amanda Schrauben
Birds, deer, squirrels too.
Oh hello there nature’s pets.
Who is training whom?

On the Case
By Jenn Hastings
So. Much. Paw Patrol.
Yes, Netflix, we’re still watching.
“Chase is on the case!”

#truestory
By Beth Scalzitti
Five people live here.
Should we cut up old T-shirts?
Need toilet paper.

Have a wonderful Friday and Happy International Haiku Day! Stay safe. Stay healthy.
