Fleeting Gold

A  L  O  H  A  !




"But especially he loved to run


 in the dim twilight. . . 


 listening to the subdued and sleepy murmurs. . .


 reading signs and sounds


 as a man may read a book,


 and seeking for the mysterious something 


that called -- 


called,


 waking or sleeping,


 at all times, for him to come."


   Jack London 

(The Call of the Wild)













"Life is not a matter of holding good cards,
 but sometimes, playing a poor hand well." 

Jack London 






"One cannot violate
 the promptings of one's nature
without having that nature
 recoil upon itself."


Jack London

Hawaii's sun 
mellows 
in the Autumn


Sleeps in
larks about
retires early

Less cruel
(Lahaina)
fully lovely to contemplate

as a mature
and beautiful
woman.
