Sweet Neat

 A L O H A  From

H O N O L U L U


This day unfolds

With gentle light,  

No rush to chase

No need to fight.  


Tasks like petals

Soft and sweet,  

Flow in peace

Calm and neat.  


No ticking clock 

No hurried beat,  

Just footsteps soft

In mindful street.  


Worries drift

Like clouds that roam,  

Here in this quiet

We find our home.  



Each moment blooms

A tender song,  

Where heart and soul

Both belong.  


Doing all with love

Not stress,  

A life in grace

Quietly blessed.  




So let the world

Spin wild and fast,  

We hold a calm

That’s made to last.  


A new way walks

Serene and true 

A sweet life’s dance

For me and you.  


This gentle path

No need to race,  

Is work and joy

In warm embrace.  



Breathe deep, be kind,

let laughter flow—  

In every task,

let kindness grow.
