Flown

A L O H A From Honolulu!

Live in the present
and make it so beautiful that
it will be worth remembering.
 Ida Scott Taylor



 In all things in nature there is something
of the marvelous.
Aristotle




But who will watch my lilies,
When their blossoms open white?
By day the sun shall be sentry,
And the moon and the
stars by night!
   Bayard Taylor




All creatures are flawed, 

but out of the flaw 
may come the universe. 
  Marguerite Young  





Often I think of
the beautiful town,
That is seated
by the sea.
Longfellow



My muse, a wanderer
from the days of old Seeks refuge here, where
pleasure reigns supreme.
And all is joy and mirth,
and none is old, No care nor sorrow
mars the hours serene.
Here, with the wine cup's
brim, and music's lay, The hours fly rapidly,
and soon we find Our cares and troubles
all have flown away,

Love You,
Pixie & Cloudia

Thanks for such a beautiful post. I love the flower in the second shot, and Pixie showing us how to ensure our cares all fly away (by adoring her cute little face).
