A L O H A From Honolulu!
My future starts when
I wake up every morning...
Every day I find something
creative to do with my life.

The fact that I can plant a seed
and it becomes a flower,
share a bit of knowledge
and it becomes another's,
smile at someone and receive
a smile in return,
are to me continual
spiritual exercises.
Leo Buscaglia
Descendant of giants
though small she may be,
Dinosaurs live on
Dinosaurs live on
wild and free.
The flowers her castle
a throne made of petals
Fresh red her domain
Fresh red her domain
among which she settles.
Stalks tiny flies, with
a lightning-quick strike,
A hunter supreme
in dappled sunlight.

There is an eagle in me
that wants to soar,
and there is a
and there is a
hippopotamus in me
that wants to wallow
that wants to wallow
in the mud.

Oh, humble baguette,
hero of the lunch,
A primal pleasure
Your hearty, crusty crunch!
Gift of grain
by fire made new,
A queenly wonder
for me and you too!

Your poem is making me want to go out and find a gecko outside. Have a great weekend, Cloudia.
Beautiful captures and excellent quotes!
I love the poem about the gecko and its accompanying portrait. I also love the Sandburg poem about the eagle and hippo, although Pixie thinks that since cats are superior beings they never have mud-wallowing hippos inside them, only soaring eagles and pixie dust.
Love your poem.
You write beautiful words and poems
Wow thanks friends!
Wonderful quotes again!
Beautiful poem and quotes!
Cute captures of the lizard and Pixie!
Thank you for linking up and sharing your post. Take care, have a great weekend.
PS, thank you for leaving me a comment.
Miles Davis is right, every day is a chance to create! Beautiful post!
The little gecko is looking for lunch.
Great photo of pixie and also of the humble bread. Nice.
...an Eagle and Hippo danced in the moonlight.
A rather fun post today, Cloudia. Love the wee dinosaur and the delicious baguette. ;-)
I love Leo's writings, but Cloudia's are wonderful!
Your comments are pure gold friends! Thanks
I made homemade yeast bread this week and thought about attempting baguettes...but decided to wait on them. Love the wallow in the mud part of the quote! hahaha! And your lizard poem is very nice!
Your poetry is sublime, thanks for sharing!

The baguette looks like a turtle sculpture.
Your poem about the lizard is truly lyrical, Cloudia. Blessings!
Beautiful quotes, thank you!
