Sacred Antics of the Clouds (Hawaii)

A   L   O   H   A !
Love In The Hot Afternoon by Gene Watson on Grooveshark
King Ape (center)
was reading his paper
 but baby seal has climbed
up into his arms.
 See, the bright pages
 are dropped.
Winged Pig (left)
is a little jealous
(his halo is evaporating)
Fractured Rat (right)
waits patiently, just
happy to be allowed.




What tender compassion,
 in the face of the
Kingly Ape.


Baby Seal shyly
looks up into the eyes
of tonight's 
Cloud Monarch.

See Piggys snout
yearning in
for some attention?








Day Rabbit
has run,
following Sun -






A Silly Sea Serpent
(Right, facing left)
breathes limp fire
after a choir
of blue 
Flying Fish -





Keep Dancing,
Pinky.
Tomorrow
YOU might just
be Queen
of the afternoon!

Thanks, Dear Friend
for visiting!

You are the cloud nobility
in my sky

Writing in the Park

Morning's Nursery, Pink & Blue
" The difference between

fiction and reality?

Fiction

has to make

sense. "

Tom Clancy





Monstera & Aruba Blue by Essie

 to be true. 
Tales and adventures
 are the shadow truths
 that will endure 
when mere facts 
are dust and ashes
 and forgotten. "

Neil Gaiman 













Cast a Long Shadow (Java Finch)
" Poetry is an echo,
 asking a shadow
 to dance.
Carl Sandburg 

<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>


Much of what I share
with You here
is written during my 
morning walks
  in Waikiki.

Standing,
writing in my palm
in the park.

It's as if you 
are walking with me.
Every day!

Then I visit your site,
and walk along
with you for a while.

I love our 
conversation

NICE!


Thanks for walking along,

" Now that I've 
relinquished 
my fantasies

 I wish I could be,

I have more time 
for the things 
that I truly enjoy."

Soul is a Small Bird

A   L   O   H   A  !
Bird on a Wire by Leonard Cohen on Grooveshark

" I'd rather sing one wild song

 and burst my heart with it,

 than live a thousand years

 watching my digestion

 and being afraid

 of the wet.” 

 Jack London, 
The Turtles of Tasman

















"I'd rather sing
MANY wild songs
 and burst my heart with 
a surprising number
of them,








 while living
 a thousand years
 nurturing my digestion
with good food,








and showing due
respect
 of the slippery,
and wet.” 

Cloudia

can become great. "
