A Fresh Breeze

 A L O H A From Honolulu!

 We all live
 under the same sky,
 but we don't all have
 the same horizon.
   Konrad Adenauer



 Act as if 
what you do
 makes a difference.
 It does. 
 William James




 Take rest; 
a field that has rested 
gives a bountiful crop. 
Ovid




The gift of fantasy 
has meant more to me 
 than any talent 
for abstract, 
positive thinking.  
Albert Einstein





New candidates shine
folks cheer with glee,
Old ones fade into history!
The hardest thing for them to know
is when they're done and time to  go.
Then the voters have their say
Longing for a brand new day!
          Pixie

Love You,
Cloudia & Pixie


Sky, a canvas vast and deep,
Painted hues of blue and sleep.
Flowers, earthly stars in bloom,
Real as dreams in a fragrant room.
Petals' softly whispered prayer
Dancing gently on the air.
Cloudia Charters
