From
Honolulu
Leaping high
through morning blue,
Dolphin clouds
in sunlight flew.
Gray and silver,
light with play,
They chase away tears
the storm set astray.
Skies that wept
now softly gleam,
Like laughter rising
from a dream.
The world exhales
— the sea, the air —
Joy returns,
and all is fair.

Early evening's buzz and glow,
she pauses at the edge of the sidewalk. Palm shadows dance like whispered secrets across her bare shoulders,
a fleeting poem to passersby
she will never know she wrote.

Great poems today! I love the tiki and the gecko and Pixie.
Nice photos. Your geckos seem to pose and know when you're taking a pic of them. Maybe Pixie taught them. Linda in Kansas
Both poems are great and Pixie looks majestic.
Love the Hanging Lobster Claw and Pixie looks curious there :-D
Wow! The cloud certainly does look like a dolphin, Cloudia. What a great capture and poem to accompany it. Blessings!
Hello Cloudia,
I love the poems and your photos.
The lizard and Pixie are favorite and I love the flowers.
Take care, have a great day and a happy weekend.
Sending wishes for peace and joy, along with my deep appreciation of your talents in capturing clouds and animals and candid people living their lives and then turning them into words of poetry!
...keep dreaming!
I wondered what a dolphin cloud was until I saw your photo!
Nice poems and Pixie certainly looks surprised in this photo.
I love the imagery of dolphin clouds. They are always a thrill when we spot them.
Your words are lovely today, Cloudia. ;-)
Glad to see amazing Dolphin clouds, Beautiful poems. Awesome pics. Greetings to you and Cute Pixie. Happy weekend.
I like the words of Rumi. Love to you and Pixie :)
Beautiful poem by you and Pixie. Dolphin clouds, perfect. I remember the nights in Hawaii, there is an emotion about the fragrance and heat. I miss that. I didn't see you linked up but thank you for sharing with FFO and have a very nice weekend.
Dolphin clouds! Yes! Love that phptp and your poem!
I like your street photo with the pattern of the leaves and their shadows with a mystery woman. The hanging lobster claws is an amazing plant. I've never seen one before.
Pixie looks inquisitive.
I love the imagery evoked by your poem's words. Aloha!
That is one giant wingspan for a moth
What a beautiful lizard. Much more interesting than the ones around here.
