A myriad of bloggers
show and tell
the simple truths
of our locales,
and the weather
of human souls.
A thousand lights,
MILLIONS!
Keeping the flame alive,
the flame of:
"This is who I am."
And how way YOUR day?
Together,
you & I.

And yes, in simple truth, we show our world to each other and marvel at its beauty. Aloha.
