Those We Love

A L O H A From Honolulu!

All, Many, Few





First Nations / Native Bird Flute

The flute of the infinite
is played without ceasing,
and it's sound is love.
 Kabir





Are you looking for me?
I am in the next seat.
My shoulder is against yours...
you will see me instantly —
you will find me in the
tiniest house of time.
Kabir *



Upon the wall, a magic sight,
A furry friend of softest light.
No paws to tread, no tail to flick,
Just shadow-dance and magic trick.

Whiskered shape O ghostly gleam,
Abstract friend in sunlit scheme.
Fleeting wink, a silver stream,
Tiny tiger in a dream.

Ephemeral friend, moment’s grace,
Whiskered smile from outer space
You're gone as quickly as you came,
Dazzle phantom silver flame!
          Cloudia Charters





Wonder is the
beginning of wisdom.
Socrates
