Foliage People

A L O H A From Honolulu!

We can listen to
the rustling silence in the
foliage of expectations.
 Erik Pevernagie


A lot of people are
all foliage and no fruit.
  Craig D. Lounsbrough





The rustling of the leaves
is like a low hymn to nature.
James Ellis


Even a leaf in the wind
settles sometimes.
Alison Goodman



Let your love flow where
the beautiful things are and
something beautiful will
always come your way. Robert M. Drake

Love You,
Pixie & Cloudia

    I love the juxtaposition of the statue cat and the Pixie cat both hiding amidst the foliage. Comfort Spiral's foliage always comes with beautiful fruits :) (or cats)

    Her hands are covering the whole front of the camera. She must be taking a selfie. Why is she on her toes?

    Hi Cloudia!
    Have a wonderful week. I am almost out of jet-lag. This was a more difficult travel for me because it was all on our own. It's nice to be back in Hawaii and to feel the cooler breezes. I wish we had more trees in our neighborhood though.

    When I read your title I thought Foliage People would be a wonderful thing to be called.

    But then...

    Nice Goodman quote and a very colorful kitty. However, not as colorful as Pixie.

    So many drink, so much trash!! Thanks for sharing your incredible photos and quotes with us as well as your drink post for T this Tuesday, dear Cloudia.

    I didn't see the mural the first time I was here. I like that Tattoo Parlors often have great murals on their walls. I like the humor of this one. The stunning eagle is juxtaposed against the cat that reminds me of Felix in the cartoons.

    Love the quote: The rustling of the leaves is like a low hymn to nature by James Ellis. Makes me think of the Bible verse somewhere that says the stars sing his praises. I saw a presentation from NASA, that played sounds from outer space; stars singing praises? I hope you visit my blog this week, because I posted some of our Hawaii photos. :) Happy T Day.
