Just A Shoestring

A L O H A From Honolulu!

Sublimate or postpone

your true Desires & opinions

long enough, and you

could well lose track

of what You really want,

and of yourself. 

No One Can Steal

Your Joy.

It is in

Your power.

Youth trades pleasure

Till the full moon rise;

Age shares comfort

For they have

become Wise.

Don't play the saxophone.

Let it play you. Charlie Parker

Would love to play WITH a shoestring ANYtime!

You can play a shoestring

if you're sincere.

Eyes In My Feet

A L O H A From Honolulu!

If you are in a bad mood, 

go for a walk. If

you are still in a bad mood, 

go for another walk.

Hippocrates

I despise people 

who go to the gutter on 

either the right or the left 

and hurl rocks at 

those in the center. 

Dwight D. Eisenhower

I really think the more 

talent people have, the 

more polite they are...

It's only the gutter snipes 

who leave their lipstick 

on the studio floor - and 

that's just the men. 

     Antony Armstrong-Jones

Just when the caterpillar thought 

“I am incapable of moving,”

it became a butterfly.

 Annette Thomas

I could not have 

made it this far 

had there not 

been angels 

         along the way.

             Della Reese

Wish I Knew But I Do

A   L   O   H   A  !

Self-care is never 

a selfish act-it is 

simply good stewardship 

of the only gift I have, 

the gift I was put on earth 

to offer to others.

     Parker Palmer

Be that self 

which one

truly is.

Soren Kierkegaard

Prejudices are

what fools use 

for reason.

 Voltaire 

When pure sincerity 

forms within,

 it is outwardly realized 

in other people's hearts.

 Lao Tzu

Who am I?

I wish I knew.

So many versions

like the years just flew,

but I knew by each

successive permutation

some aspect of 

the project to

polish, or completely

smooth down.

I'm  done 

with the frown.

Oh I've seen it around.

But it can do it's job

elsewhere.

Hanging back more

but I still care,

and bringing the 

Good Stuff distilled

from mountaintops

with a dash of despair.

So there.

We're here.

And I do hold You 

dear. 

Love the loving

avoid the hate

heaven is within you,

inhabit it.

Don't wait.

Fondly,

One 'ukulele

The crash and boom of the Sea

slamming the land

causes the ground to

tingle your feet

with a deep & ancient

vibratory

communication.

Accompanying

heralds of spray

cast glitters and

ions about.

Hallelujah

Is the sky cloudy? Can’t you see 

the shining stars? Take a look 

at the eyes of a happy child, 

you will see all the 

bright stars over there!

“The chief beauty about time is 

that you cannot waste it in advance.

The next year, the next day, 

the next hour are 

lying ready for you,

as perfect, as unspoiled,

You can turn over a 

new leaf every hour

if you choose.”

We all carry, inside us, 

people who 

came before us.”
