When Calm Returns

 A L O H A  From

H  O  N  O  L  U  L  U

When calm returns
The world will feel new.
Even the sky
Will be a sharper blue.
We'll count the spoons
We'll count the cost,
And cherish
What we almost lost.

The sea at night,
vast and inky canvas
holds secrets only the 
stars could witness. 
Under the midnight blue 
of the ocean sky, the ship 
is a phantom, a tireless 
dancer on the dark expanse.
To be at sea at night, 
on a ship, under a 
canopy of cobalt, is to 
truly understand the 
immensity of the world 
and the humble audacity 
of the human spirit.




True wisdom comes 
to each of us when 
we realize how little 
we understand about 
life, ourselves, and 
the world around us.
Socrates

There is more to a boy
than what his mother sees.
There is more to a boy
then what his father dreams.
Inside every boy lies a
heart that beats. And
sometimes it screams,
refusing to take defeat.
And sometimes his father's
dreams aren't big enough,
and sometimes his mother's
vision isn't long enough.
And sometimes the boy
has to dream his own
dreams and break through
the clouds with
his own sunbeams. Ben Behunin
