A L O H A From Honolulu!
Dad & Daughter
Hand in hand
feeling grand
Off the cement
in touch
with the land
Memories are built
of this
Trust for the future
Possibilities of bliss.
Throughout the years
Her soul can again
Return to her
early mornings
Walking along
with him.

Symphony Skies
Most symphonies, however, are wordless. They are built only of tones, nonlinguistic sounds vibrating in the air, and somehow, we take them to heart and feel that they speak to us more deeply than words ever could.

You don’t get in life
what you want;
you get in life
what you are.

Best Friends
Grand adventures need not roam,
Vastness is found close to home.
Stretch your mind
let wonder bloom,
No fortune spent
to chase the moon.
Craving vastness, don't despair,
Grand adventures
hide right there.
Whispers in a
hidden space.
Walks on sand,
a friendly face,
Friendly eyes
and open mind,
Expansive moments there to find.
Walk beneath
a starlit sky,
Wander where
the wild things lie.
For vastness hides
in plainest sight,
Awaiting you with pure delight.
Cloudia Charters
Don't forget to
enjoy the game.

Cute mural. I love M T Anderson. I read that book about Leningrad. It's harrowing at times. Very different to his children's books. I know a LOT about Shostakovich now....(except maybe how to spell his name?) #MuralMondays
