Between Dreams


 A  L  O  H  A 

From

Honolulu

A person is a success if
they get up in the morning
and get to bed at night
and in between does
what he wants to do.

I get up every morning and 

it's going to be a great day. 

You never know when 

it's going to be over so 

I refuse to have a bad day.

Between Dreams:

Life's endings and beginnings
by Cloudia Charters

The old dream
has gone quiet.
The new one
has no name.

I stand where they
do not meet
and find the distance empty
of everything but pain.

But rain rests here
before it falls.
A seed lies still
before it grows tall.

Perhaps I do not
have to start
with hope
or even light.

Just for today
I only need
to leave my
front door ajar
to let the morning
alight.

Love You,

Cloudia & Pixie

Perhaps the common thread is that life does not require us to know exactly where we are going, only to keep getting up, opening the door, and making the most of the day we have.

It looks like Pixie is lying there ready to catch the light peeking through so she can give it to you. Thanks for sharing beauty and wisdom and love.

I posted the moon today...as seen in daylight on Oct. 1 actually...rather than at night. It's so nice that we see the same sky views.
