Your Perfect Place

A  L  O  H  A !

" If I have learnt anything, 

it is that life forms

 no logical patterns. -

- It is haphazard and 

full of beauties which

 I try to catch

 as they fly by,

 for who knows

 whether any of them 

will ever return? "

Is there a 

Perfect Place to live?

That would differ 

for different folks.

A Laplander or Inuit

might hate jungles,

while a jungle woman

would freeze

in their world.

Do you love mountains?

Lakes? Deserts? 

The Sea?

The town of your birth,

or a place made 

just your own

far, far Away?

Town? Country?

Condo or ranch?

Do we need

People like us?

or perhaps a

foreign land?

For some a tiny

uninhabited isle

would be just

perfect,

Perfectly Grand!

Name one thing

you love

about Your Home;

[And one you hate,

IF you dare.]

I'll start us off:

"Hawaii's uniqueness

&

Hawaii's uniqueness"

[for good and less-good]

Now YOUr turn!

" We can speak 

without voice

 to the trees 

and the clouds 

and the waves 

of the sea. 

- Without words 

they respond 

through the

 rustling of leaves 

and the 

moving of clouds 

and the murmuring 

of the sea. "

" Some writers can 

only deal with 

childhood experience, 

because it's complete. -

- For another kind of writer,

 life goes on, and

 he's able to keep 

processing that as well. "

Life DOES

Go On!

Some of us

look back,

or look through

the eyes

of yesterday.

My past

is revising;

The future

arising,

Work we

share:

revitalizing!

Thank YOU

for being a part!
