Sell One

  A  L  O  H  A 

From

Honolulu

To create
one's own world
in any of the arts
takes courage.
Georgia O'Keeffe





White African Iris
Dietes iridioides, also called
Fortnight Lily

If you have two
loaves of bread, sell one
and buy a lily.
Chinese Proverb




Intelligent people are not
always the most educated.
They're the ones
willing to learn. Sibel Terhaar

Love You,
Cloudia & Pixie

Face of this dog,
glanced for a moment—
intelligence, yearning,
quiet in his eyes
a spirit that knows love,
 and the way home.

    Many of the artists I know definitely march to their own beat.

    I have seen that buy a lily as buy a hyacinth, which may be even better, according to one's taste, of course
