you will have succeeded.

What you leave behind
is not what is engraved
in stone monuments, but
what is woven into
the lives of others.
Pericles
The pouch is not large.
Its weave has loosened
where the years
have pulled.
Still, it holds.
your small thread in
the grand tapestry.

Angels descending,
bring from above,
echoes of mercy,
whispers of love.

misfortune; but
great minds

Field of Play
by Cloudia Charters
A small child
in a big field—
so much grass,
so much sky,
so much room
to be alive.
She runs
without knowing
where running goes.
Stopping
to meet a bug,
a cloud,
a flower.
Each one
a whole world
of wonders.
I remember being small
before I knew
the names of things.
I hope the world
is gentle with her.
I hope she keeps
the way of seeing:
that life is wide,
wonder is enough,
and play
is how we learn
to belong.
Kindness is a power
we all have.
We just have to
decide to use it.

The lehua is the first tree
that springs up from a
recent lava flow.
It’s for that reason,
when we speak in Hawaiian
and we speak of people who are
skilled, strong, and beloved,
they’re often referred to as
pua lehua, or lehua flowers.
They, like the lehua, have a
kind of resilience, a strength and
a grace about them.

May you grow up to be righteous,
may you grow up to be true.
May you always know the truth
and see the lights surrounding you.
May you always be courageous,
stand upright and be strong.
May you stay forever young.
Bob Dylan
Clarity comes not from
the absence of confusion but
from the courage to face it
with an open mind.
Joseph Meyering Sr.
Believe in yourself and
there will come a day when
others will have no choice
but to believe with you.

Luna
by Cloudia Charters
You need not be full
to be lovely.
Even a sliver of you
reminds me
change is not always loss.
You do not hurry.
Neither must I.
Some nights
your company is enough:
a little room for mystery.
You keep no calendar
of my mistakes.
I'll let the day go.
You keep the night.
Luna above.
Quiet within.
Dear Luna,
I’m still becoming.
