Walk You Well

 A L O H A  From
H O N O L U L U
Night still lingers, 
dark and dire,
Sky edges glow 
with waking fire,

Between the silence 
and dawn crier
This morn unfolds 
a new desire.
   Cloudia Charters



We are all travelers 
in the wilderness 
of this world, and 
the best we can find 
in our travels is 
an honest friend.
    Robert Louis Stevenson






The Half full moon
Is my silver doubloon
The setting sun my gold
So I am young
And I am rich
And shall be
Till I'm old.
    J.M. Barrie




The difference between
a good life and a bad life
is how well you walk
through the fire.
C.G. Jung

Gorgeous post today! I love the last quote about walking well through fire. Pixie seems to think that it is better to bask in the warmth BESIDE the fire, no need to walk through it.

...Cloudia, keep putting one foot in front of the other.

Beautiful sky and rainbow photos.
Pixie is always looking adorable.
Great quotes and wise words.
Take care, Happy Friday! Have a great weekend.

I love your beautiful poem.
And give Pixie a cuddle. Lovely photo of her in front of the fire. I didn't know it could get cold in Hawaii. Here in southern Spain the temperatures are going down and before long we might need a fire in the evening.
Have a lovely weekend,
Lisca

Beautiful texts and pictures. Cute Pixie.

From dawn to a rainbowed sky, with Pixie by the fire, these photos just all invite me to sigh and feel relaxed. Peaceful. Yes there's the walk through fire of daily life still...but looking up to the sky is still there.

Pixie looks content.

Today would be a perfect day to sit with Pixie by the fire, Cloudia. ;-)

I continue to pray.
(There is) Another In The Fire

"There is no other name but the name that is Jesus
He who was and still is, and will be through it all
So come what may in the space between
All the things unseen and this reckoning
And I know I will never be alone

There'll be another in the fire
Standing next to me
There'll be another in the waters
Holding back the seas"
