there is a cosmos,

in all disorder,

a secret order.

I understand so clearly

that love itself is our birthright.

We may have become

distant from it, but

it's not something we're born

without. Therefore it's always

there for us to return to.

Oh, the summer night,

Has a smile of light,

Beauty is not what 
you are on the outside,
it is the wisdom and 
time you gave away to
save another struggling 
soul like you.

         Shannon L. Alder

 Don’t seek to be happy;

let everyone else chase

after that rainbow.

Seek to be kind, and

you’ll find

the rainbow follows you.

forms within, it is

outwardly realized in

other people's hearts.

I love all dots. 

I am married to many of them. 

I want all dots to be happy. 

Dots are my brothers. 

I am a dot myself. 

Sigmar Polke

I've always loved polka dots. 

Ah, oui. It is a joyful shape, 

the polka dot. It is alive.

Polka dots are fabulous.

This Moment.

 taste the fruit, and
 resign yourself
 to the influences
 of each.

of my heart 
I open to 
the day.

Lovely Portals

 A  L  O  H  A 

From

Honolulu

How lovely are the portals of the night, when stars come out to watch the daylight die. Thomas Cole

Soft tropical light
filtering
through the palms.
“They will still bear fruit
in old age, they will stay
fresh and green."

Psalm 92:14

Photography deals exquisitely

with appearances, but nothing

is what it appears to be.

Duane Michals

Beyond the edge of sorrow
Awaits another tomorrow.
Soft dawn ends
The quiet night,
Filling shadows
With hopeful light.

Steps may falter,
hearts may ache,
Yet morning comes
And sleepers wake.
So hold this promise
Deep and true
New days bloom
And so can you.

Stillness And Departure

  A  L  O  H  A

from 

Honolulu

When you feel a peaceful joy, that's when you are near truth. Rumi

Always wear a smile. The gift of life will then be yours to give. Rabbi Nachman of Breslov

I must have been listening

to Morning Wild Bird Song

on my phone. Because

when I got in the car

it began in there. It was

amusing and unexpected,

but quickly became quite lovely.

I drove all the way

listening to the birds instead of music!

Later, I returned home with the birds.

My car had became a

Summer morning full of peace.

Traffic did not annoy me.

Today I was on Day 2

with the wild morning birds.

I think my blood pressure

has gone down!

Reactions

come from the mind, responses

come from the heart. Joseph Meyering Sr

Cats teach stillness; 

birds are all departure.

Cat listens to the bird

the bird listens to the sky.

One lives by patience, 

the other by flight.

Between them: the whole 

lesson of desire.

Birds carry 

the sky’s old language.

The cat listens to silence 

the way hunger

 imbibes food's smell.

The bird knows what 

the wind remembers.

They seem to vanish

so they can return 

as signs.

The cat teaches stillness 

as a form of knowing.

The bird teaches flight 

and all about

finding out.

Bird is a bright thought 

Heaven could not keep.

Kitty contemplates

then promptly falls asleep!
