Salute Fleeting Beauty

A L O H A From Honolulu!

The clouds like mountains

dipped in Midas' touch, Burn yellow and gold,

promising so much.

The wind picks up,

a whisper, then a sigh, Stirring the silence

beneath the glaring sky. We stand and watch

the golden tide unfurl, Promises whispered

to a waiting world.

Cloudia Charters

Heliconia psittacorum is a

perennial herb native to the

Caribbean and South America.

Face like a squish

Wrinkled delight,

A Bostonian grin

Goofy and bright.

Wide lips pulled back

That toothy display,

A smile that could make

anyone's day!

[Even Mine] Pixie

Wisdom is knowing

what to do next.

Skill is knowing

how to do it.

Virtue is doing it.

Thomas Jefferson

Salute fleeting beauty

Painted in the sky,

A moment held in memory

Even before it says goodbye.

Cloudia & Pixie

Having perfected our disguise,

we spend our lives searching

for someone we don’t fool. In the end there doesn’t have to

be anyone who understands you.

There just has to be

someone who wants to. Robert Brault
