My World

is a happy place,

today a region

full of grace.

Funny how

we hide our sweets,

perhaps afraid

we don't deserve

such treats?

But trudge-ery

feels fit.

Joy? Success?

We feel guilty

uncertain

of it!

" Don't boast!

Don't crow!

That's not the 

side to show. "

Well I'm gonna

dare it,

gonna up

and share it!

I feel great

and grateful

today!

I hope you do too,

or will real soon,

that's what I say

by the light

of my full moon.

" A single act of kindness 

throws out roots 

in all directions, 

- and the roots spring up 

and make new trees."

 people who do

 good deeds develop

 a friendly and joyful 

personality, which attracts 

and magnetizes those

 they associate with 

and which brings

 kindness their way. "

Graphic Mural Waikiki

A  L  O  H  A   from   Honolulu!

I like how this 

graphic wall plays 

it's geometry and red

color against nature's

 greens and curves.

But is THIS a mural?

we see a new

Each fairy breath of summer, 

as it blows with loveliness,
