Next Week Meadow

A L O H A  From
H O N O L U L U

Why let go of wonder that keeps our
spirits strong? Let’s cherish the fairy connection as we travel on. Pixie

Wheels In Wheels
The wheels 
hummed lullabies 
on the licorice road.
 Glenda Millard







You don't see the 
things you photograph,
you feel them.
  Andre Kertesz




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



Meadow of Next Week
There's a wonderful thing
called next week, An untouched meadow
beyond the reach of worry. Wide enough for every ambition, Still enough to
grant immediate rest. Ease your burdens
onto that soft grass— Let them wait
in the hush of unseen days,
Let light pool quietly
In your bowl of now, As breath returns
to no hurry. Trust next week
to hold all you
cannot carry today Grace the present moment Be the leaf that floats. Let's let the wind decide. Lay your burden
on next week. Then be here. Be free.
Cloudia Charters
