Butterflies Can't See Their Wings


  A  L  O  H  A 

From

Honolulu

Nature always wears
the colors of the spirit.
Ralph Waldo Emerson



Butterflies can't see their wings.
They can't see how truly
beautiful they are, but
everyone else can.
People are like that as well.
Ralph Waldo Emerson

Special Sky Show:
A young moon joined by
Venus and Jupiter
in the western evening sky.
L is for love, for the lamp
in the dark, for the tender
"Yes"
in the song
of a lark.


Stride strong,
eat well Keep hearts
light and free, The best of
life's journey Still waiting here
for thee.
Pixie

Love You,

its crown to a
throne called grace.

The beautiful butterflies may not see their own wings, yet somehow they mate with their like kind, in order for new ones to happen in the amazing worm to flying beauty way. Thanks for the thought!

The stars and moon have been exciting recently but we have clouds too often, so I’ve never become a star gazer.
