If The Rain

 A  L  O  H  A 
From
Honolulu
If the rain that touches your skin traveled miles to find you, then so will everything that is meant for you.


You are what you do,
not what you say you'll do, Carl Gustav Jung




Don't live whatever your age is.
Forget about it.
Keep the old man out
If you feel good,
you take care of yourself,
just live your life,
live the moment,
time is your asset.
Forget about age.
Do whatever you want. Paul Anka


Your emotions are only signals.
And you get to decide how
you’ll respond to them. Arthur C. Brooks

Intoxicate

This makes me SO Happy!

 Hummingbird, 
 little ember of the air, 
 you arrive like a thought 
 too beautiful to keep, 
 and vanish before 
 the heart can 
 finish its gasp.
 Pixie & Cloudia 



It isn't the tunnel
we pass through 
that matters,
it's what emerges 
on the other side.
      Richelle E. Goodrich





There are days 
when solitude, 
for someone my age,
 is a heady wine that
intoxicates you
 with freedom.

Master Key

From
Honolulu

I will shine again
even though I know
the clouds of life
will come-and go.
Shirley Jones-Witcher






Smile, it is the key
that fits the lock
of everyone's heart.
 Anthony J. D'Angelo 








There wouldn't be 
a sky full of stars if 
we were all meant to 
wish on the same one.
Frances Clark  






Wear a smile 
and have friends;
wear a scowl and 
have wrinkles.
     George Eliot

Balcony Lights

 A  L  O  H  A 
From
Honolulu

We are each gifted in a unique and important way. It is our privilege and our adventure to discover our own special light. Mary Dunbar


When you are not sure, 
flip a coin because while 
the coin is in the air, you
realize which one 
you are actually hoping for.
        Jay Shetty





In the dark, 
they shimmer —
not stars, 
but kind reminders.

Someone chose 
to keep the glow,
to say: the season 
never ends.

Look up, 
and joy returns —
small colored lights,  
steadfast,
whispering: 
you are not alone.
Cloudia Charters






At school, 
they asked me 
what I wanted to be 
when I grew up. 
I wrote "happy’'
  John Lennon

A dragon so colorful 
it doesn’t breathe fire, 
but rainbows and opinions.

 If it sneezes, 
it’ll paint the clouds!

A dragon so bright, 
even glowing clouds 
stop by to take notes.

Dragon flutters
 through the sky 
like a dream 
painting itself.

The sky’s 
favorite daydream!

Esprit Waves

 A  L  O  H  A 
From
Honolulu
Life is beautiful
and meaningful indeed. I took pleasure when I could. I acted clearly and morally and without regret. I am very lucky. Always keep your smile. That's how I explain my long life. Jeanne Louise Calment *
21 February 1875 – 4 August 1997, Super-centenarian


The only 
impossible journey
is the one 
you never begin.
    Anon Y. Mouse






Puppy bounds through 
waves of glee,
Tail a flag 
of happy esprit.
In his romp, 
pure joie de vivre!
Pixie





We don't even know how strong we are until we are forced to bring that hidden strength forward. The human capacity for survival and renewal is awesome. Isabel Allende

When Compassion

 A  L  O  H  A 
From
H O N O L U L U
Peace begins 
when the mind stops 
fighting reality.
When greed softens.
When hatred is not fed.
When compassion 
becomes action.
   Buddha


Look at other people 
and ask yourself if you are 
really seeing them or just 
your thoughts about them.... 
Without knowing it, we are coloring everything, putting our spin on it all.
                     Jon Kabat-Zinn






Light leans gently 
against the glass, 
unsure which side 
it belongs to.



In her gaze,
the world grows still,
A shimmer born
of moonlit will.
She loves as stars love—
soft, aloof,
Yet curls at dusk
beneath my roof.

Cloudia & Pixie
We Love
YOU!

between giving and keeping:  
share what overflows,  
guard what is still ripening.  
Every true spark
Is mutual.
