Enhancing Corner

A L O H A From Honolulu!

Golden galleon clouds
Sail softly out to sea,
A canvas duly painted
With hues of destiny.

Copper and gold
Masterpiece of light,
Fading into purple
As shadows claim the night.
Cloudia Charters



Human felicity is produced
 not as much by
great pieces of good fortune
 that seldom happen
 as by little advantages
 that occur every day.
      Benjamin Franklin 




White-Rumped Shama
copsychus malabaricus

The work will wait 
while you show
 the child the rainbow,
 but the rainbow
 won't wait 
while you do
 the work.
  Douglas Pagels




Some people
strengthen the society 
just by being the
kind of people they are.
 John W. Gardner

    I love your ode to sunset - and will always stop and marvel at a rainbow.

    The sky should stay purple all night.

    Pixie looks so wide eyed, like she is shocked by something she is seeing.

    You are going to count on the wisdom of the day. What will Cloudia (and Pixie) bring next both to the eye and to the brain but it never disappoints.

    Felicity: now there is a word that we don’t tend to use anymore.

    Glorious sky shots, especially the rainbows. Pixie definitely makes the world a better place just by being her lovable self.
