Canoe Plants - Foreigner Plants
A L O H A !
Manoa Valley Cloud Shadows
“All shadows of clouds the sun cannot
hide
like the moon cannot stop oceanic
tide;
but a hidden star can still be
smiling
at night's black spell on darkness,
beguiling”
Munia Khan
Lychee Bandits!
"Most people … do not know that when the white man came Honolulu was a treeless, sandy plain, with a fringe of cocoanut trees along the shore. Honolulu, as it is to-day, is the creation of the foreigner. It is his handiwork. Walk into one of the numerous yards where plants and trees and vines are growing, as though on their native soil, and you will find that every one of them has been imported within a comparatively recent period. … Here is the rubber tree, the banyan, the baobab, the litchee, the avocado, the mango, and palms innumerable."
John Leavitt Stevens
'Honolulu, and Other Places of Interest',
Picturesque Hawaii (1894)
"Canoe plants, or Polynesian introductions,
are plants taken from ancient Polynesia and transplanted to other Pacific Islands."
Wikipedia
By the voyaging Hawaiians themselves.

Path To Open
A L O H A !
"Our paths are not mapped;
they’re made.”
Priya Ardis
“Sometimes the only path
we can maneuver is
from the bed to
the bathroom.
That's okay. Let
your journey be
what it is .
Just keep moving.”
Toni Sorenson
"I write - though perhaps it
sounds pretentious to say so -
to make a clearing in
the wilderness, to find out
what I care about and
what exactly to make of it."
Pico Iyer
"The sky and the
strong wind have
moved the spirit
inside me till I
am carried away
trembling with joy."
