A L O H A From Honolulu!
A garden to walk in
and immensity to dream in-
-what more could he ask?
A few flowers at his feet
and above him the stars.

Let us dance in the sun,
wearing wild flowers
in our hair.

Royal poinciana- Delonix regia
She wore flowers
in her hair and carried
magic secrets
in her eyes.

Doubt your doubts before
you doubt yourself.
Lewis Pugh
Allamanda schottii - Bush allamanda
The violets in the mountains
have broken the rocks.
Tennessee Williams
Cirrus clouds - wispy, feathery ice crystals
Sometimes,
an exotic journey of discovery
begins and ends
right on your own
street.

I will be the gladdest thing
under the sun!
I will touch a hundred flowers
and not pick one.
