A L O H A From Honolulu!
Birds sing after a storm;
why shouldn't people feel
as free to delight in
whatever sunlight
remains to them?
Rose Kennedy
It was the rainbow
gave thee birth, and
left thee all her
lovely hues.
W. H. Davies
It is said that if you
hold it tight
Along with your thoughts,
and dreams at night
Your wishes will
come true, for sure.
This amulet has
magic powers.
Rabbit a symbol
of Spring,
beginnings, and
new things.
Many eyes go
through the meadow, but
few see the flowers in it.
Ralph Waldo Emerson

I've topped the wind-swept
heights with easy grace
Where never lark nor
ever eagle flew—
And, while with silent
lifting mind I've trod
The high untrespassed
sanctity of space,
Put out my hand, and
touched the face of God.
John Gillespie Magee Jr.

Pixie's face is adorable today. I love that first sky shot, and I wish I had a fan as big as the fan dancers' fans. It has been HOT in southern California these past few days.
ReplyDeleteThank you both for the beauty you share.
ReplyDeleteChinese fan dancing is very fun
ReplyDeleteThe Magee poem I'm quite familiar with.
ReplyDeleteLove the quotes today, Cloudia.
ReplyDeleteBirds do sing after a storm, but are quiet just before here. A good warning signal of something coming. Janice
