Beautiful and heartwarming
Very beautiful presentation of haiku, music and visual effects. It was so nice to revisit the whole collection of haiku from the year, describing the diverse aspects of healthcare and emotions. Thank you so much.
I can’t pick a favorite. Beautiful video. And the music! Really special to read them all together. Thank you.

So very beautiful- creativity at so many levels- poetry, poem, composition. Thank you for this- it is a new year gift.
Lovely, thank you and Happy New Year!
This is absolutely beautiful – the music, the words, the visuals. Thank you for sharing this work of art.
Bravo! Music and poetry excellent. Selfishly, I’ll vote for Tracie Renee’s haiku, having recently undergone my third annual follow-up batch of investigations after my sigmoidectomy, with normal results. Happy New Year to all!
