Yellow Bells


Aloha From Honolulu!

Gentle waves are painting
Stories on the shore,
Foamy lines that whisper tales
Of all that came before.




The heart is the only
broken instrument
 that works.
    T. E. Kalem




Tecoma stans
Yellow Esperanza,
Trumpet Bush, Trumpet Flower,
Yellow Bells, Yellow Elder



 Eternity is in love
 with the productions
 of time.
 William Blake 





 People will forget
what you said.
People will forget
what you did.
But people will never forget
how you made them feel.
   Maya Angelou

Love You,
 Pixie & Cloudia







One joy scatters
a hundred griefs.

I love the Maya Angelou quote and the cute picture of youngish Pixie. Esperanza means hope. Thanks for sharing the yellow hope of happiness today.

Lovely yellow. Hi Pixie!

Barbara Rogers said...

And Pixie looks like she's thinking, "this is not the right size for a litter box!" Great starting photo...have I told you how much it means to me to see that Hawaii has such beauty that you capture in your photos? Yellow Bells are beautiful, but I don't think I've ever seen then!
