Night and Day

 A L O H A  From

H O N O L U L U

Stillness unfolds—
night’s breath, cool and wide.
Moon drifts, mountains silent,
stars hush the tide...




...Sun brushes dew—

morning opens bright.
Petal by petal,
quiet turns to light.

The yellow glistens.
It glistens with various yellows,
Citrons, oranges and greens
Flowering over the skin.
Wallace Stevens



Few delights can equal

the mere presence of one whom we trust utterly. George MacDonald
