Impish Grin

A L O H A From Honolulu!
Your legacy is not
what they say about you,
but how they live differently
because they knew you. John Sarris 



Crown Flower
Calotropis Gigantea
A genuine smile
can never misspeak.
           Cloudia



It is an illusion that photos
are made with the camera...
they are made with the
eye, heart, and head.
   Henri Cartier-Bresson



There’s sunshine in the heart of me,
My blood sings in the breeze;
The mountains are a part of me, 
I’m fellow to the trees.
   Robert W. Service 





I'm a conscientious objector
to the way things are.
A non-combatant in the culture wars.
I will stand calmly in what is
as I see it. And will never
stoop to conquer, or
kick someone who's down!
Pixie


Love You,
Cloudia & Pix

 Impish grin, face of lime,
Angel/Devil, quite a find!
For sometimes mischief,
sweet and sly,
Reminds us all
to laugh and fly.

So don't be scared
of our smiling friend,
He'll nudge you out there
where comfort ends.

He's showing life's
a playful dance,
That mischief brings
a happy chance.

  8. I love all your quotes. They are so true. And I enjoyed Neil Sedaka. I hadn't heard that sone for ages. I remember it from back in the day and that makes me feel old...
    Pixie looking cool, calm and collective.
    Have a lovely weekend,
    Lisca

  10. Accurate quote by Henri Cartier-Bresson, who was a fine early photographer. At our best, we MAKE a picture and not TAKE a picture.
