by angels for most of my life.

Cherish Now The Fleeting Scene

A L O H A From Honolulu!

You can't go home again they say,  
For time has washed
the past away.  
Like rivers flowing
ever new,  
The world of then
Is gone from view.  



The river's course
Is never still,  
It bends and turns
At its own will.  
We gather years
Like autumn leaves,  
In memories
Our heart believes.  

Each step we take
A moment's grace,  
In time's embrace
We find our place.  
Though rivers change
And photos fade,  
In dreams, the past
Is gently laid.  




So cherish now
The fleeting scene,  
For in its flow
Life's essence gleams. 
Though you can't go home
again, it's true,  
The river's song
still sings for you.
Cloudia Charters




Whoever walks with the wise 
will become wise, but 
the companion of fools 
suffers harm.
   Solomon

Happiness and freedom 
begin with one 
principle. 
Some things are 
within your control 
and some are not.
Epictetus

Up And Running

A L O H A From Honolulu!
You don't see the 
things you photograph,
you feel them.
  Andre Kertesz




Rainbow Shower Tree Blossoms
May the stars
carry your sadness away,
May the flowers
fill your heart with beauty,
May hope forever
wipe away your tears,
And, above all, may silence
make you strong.
 Chief Dan George




Tiny feet, heart so free,
Dancing by the ocean with glee.
Hair tousled in the salty breeze,
Eyes a-sparkle, full of ease.
Running wild, joyful sight,
Growing bundle of pure delight.
Pixie





No amount of regret
changes the past.
No amount of anxiety
changes the future.
Any amount of gratitude
changes the present.
