The secret to
a good morning is
to watch the sunrise
with an open heart.

Anyone can do well …
It's all out there waiting
for you to take. But
first you must reach
out and get it. You
must work for
your riches.

it to happen.

There was never
a night or a problem
that could defeat
sunrise or hope.

Love that glorious sunrise on the windward side of the island. The pandans are cool. I have read about pandan leaves, but I've never seen the fruit. Today's bird is much closer to Pixie. She might manage to pluck some feathers for a Hawaiian hula costume.
I love your narratives!
Hooray for sunrise and for hope (that fragile essential).
There were some hungry bugs on that last leaf.
Well said
Beautiful sunrise! I love the pretty plants.
Take care, have a great day and a happy new week!
Pixie has a wee friend.
Thanks Dears
You wonder if the wee bird had any idea they were being watched.
