Like the mellow rays of the departing sun,
it falls tenderly, yet sadly, on the heart."

because to see her lips
they blush for shame."

ReplyDeleteHow beautiful, a lovely post Cloudia. I too am concerned for you since I heard of the tsunami warning. You're very much in my thoughts today.

ReplyDeleteGreetings from New England where the sun is trying to come through the clouds and thaw the snow a bit.
Watching and praying for you and for everyone in Hawaii today - and elsewhere.
ReplyDeleteI'll echo everyone else's sentiment: please check in when all this is done. I do indeed hope your Shabbat turns out to have much shalom in it.
just lovely!
