A L O H A
From
Honolulu
This man walks the beach
where footprints arrive and leave
carrying nothing
but the sun
on his shoulders.
A child’s shout
lifts and disappears
on the wind.
The palms lean casually,
as if they’ve agreed
to let the day pass
through them.
Diamond Head poses
for it's close-up.

Time itself
comes in drops.
William James
comes in drops.

Pink peacock flower tree
Pink peacock flower tree
Evening comes in
full of possibility.
City lights wink on
one by one,
small promises
welcoming the dark.
Air thrums with Maybe,
with Almost, with Go!
Footsteps quicken,
windows glow.

My soul was like a summer evening, after a heavy fall of rain, when the drops are yet glistening on the trees in the last rays of the down-going sun... George MacDonald

After reading Pixie's poem, I thought she was going to go out onto her walkway in the night and start caterwauling at the stars. Little did I know that her possibilities lie in sleeping in new positions and dreaming impossible dreams...
ReplyDelete...I wish you a magical evening.
ReplyDeleteThank you, Cloudia, for your beautiful words and photos. Such a great way to start my day! Blessings!
ReplyDeletePretty photos, Pixie is adorable as always.
ReplyDeleteI loved your poem and Pixie's.
Take care, Happy Friday! Have a great weekend.
Lovely poetry and photos...ooo to the music as well as flowers, and a new cat friend of Pixie's. Dancing with music seems like the flow of waters moving against the beach.
