A L O H A !
For a long time
nothing but
undifferentiated
clouds.
Then, subtly, a portal
seems to appear.
Yes. There it is. See it?
OK Enter
Blue Skies say:
"All Is Well."
To our eyes,
portals of the Soul,
that express and also
feed on beauty,
Like this sky
beckoning "Enter"
wondrous pink world
Torii have been around for centuries, though their true origin is shrouded in mystery. The word itself derives from phrases that mean "pass through and enter" and "bird perch" (in Japan, birds have a symbolic connection with death). The earliest toriis that still stand today were built as far back as the 12th century, but the structure's history stretches back to the Heian period in the 900s.
You must leave your ego
on the doorstep before
you enter love.
Kamand Kojouri
Let my soul smile
through my heart and
my heart smile through
my eyes, that I may
scatter rich smiles
in sad hearts.

Great mural! I love the way you've cropped the Pixie picture to make it seem like she's peering through a portal. Cool post with the torii.
Great Eye, T!
Amazing pics.
That portal would have some people running for their lives.
A magical first shot.
Beautiful pink hibiscus.
Thanks for participating in Monday Murals Cloudia :)
Interesting post, Cloudia!
That was a fascinating mural, Cloudia, but both the hibiscus and Pixie in close-up were fabulous.
Wise words one and all.
Thank you for joining the Awww Mondays Blog Hog.
Have a fabulous Awww Monday and week. Scritches to Pixie. ♥
Oh, wow, Cloudia. That looks like a cross in the sky to me. It says look up. It says hope. Thanks.
Love these :)
LOVE all of these! Especially the Torii! Even though I live in an old mining town in BC Canada, we have quite a number around here from the Japanese who were interred here. They are such spiritual gateways!Thank You! Have a most wonderfully Happy Day!
I enjoyed your photos and poems. Very uplifting thank you.
