Borrowed Glow

 A L O H A 
From
H  O  N  O  L  U  L  U

The noblest art is
that of making
others happy.
    P. T. Barnum




 Blood Moon

Silver slips 
to copper-red,
High above 
the sleeping palms.
With half the island 
tucked in bed.
The sky assumes 
it's quiet calm.


It’s not a fire, 
nor a stain,
But every sunset 
we watched go
Reflected back 
to us again
In one shared, 
borrowed, 
crimson glow.

The only 
lasting beauty is
the beauty 
of the heart.
          Rumi



A kind heart is a 
fountain of gladness, 
making everything 
in its vicinity 
freshen into smiles. 
Washington Irving

I like your moon pics. I haven’t shot the moon for some time.

Thanks for moon photos, it was cloudy here at daybreak yesterday, which was when we might have seen the eclipse.

Sadly, the Blood Moon was behind a bank of thick clouds here. Thanks for the photo.
