Rainbow

 A   L   O   H   A  !

Clever Am I!

If you have a minute

I'll run through

some color tricks

for you!

It's not that easy bein' green

Having to spend each day

The color of the leaves

When I think it could be nicer

Bein' red or yellow or gold

Or something much 

more colorful like that

It's not easy bein' green

It seems you blend in

With so many other 

ordinary things

And people tend to 

pass you over

Cause you're not 

standing out

Like flashy sparkles 

in the water

Or stars in the sky

But green's the 

color of spring

And green can be cool 

and friendly like

And green can be big 

like a mountain

Or important like a river 

or tall like a tree

When green is all 

there is to be

It could make you 

wonder why

But, why wonder? 

(why wonder?)

I'm green and 

it'll do fine

It's beautiful. And 

I think it's what 

I want to be.

These are cultivated, but orchids 

DO run wild in Hawaii

Like wildflowers; 

You must allow 

yourself to grow in 

all the places people 

thought you never would.

The Greater Part

 A   L   O   H   A  !

Dad always insisted

that he remembered

the first thing he ever saw:

"I was in my crib, 

opened my eyes,

and saw a telephone pole

outside the window."

Appropriate for a city boy.

But we teased him 

about the entire premise. 

How could anyone have 

a memory like that?

Now that Dad has passed on

by several winters, I find myself

perversely glad that he did not

have to live through a 

world wide pandemic.

WWII was enough 

global disruption

for any life. 

His story?

Oh I believe it now. 

Or perhaps

I just believe

the memory itself.

"Love leaves a memory 

no one can steal."

A Headstone in Ireland

Thanks to a benevolent 

arrangement of things, 

the greater part of

life is sunshine.

Today or any day 

that phone may ring 

and bring good news. 

   Ethel Waters

It happened to me;

I remember the call

that changed my life.

So glad I picked up!

Everyone has inside

 a piece of good news. 

The good news is that 

you don't know how 

great you can be! 

How much you can love! 

What you can accomplish! 

And what your potential is! 

       Anne Frank

I'm actually always 

looking for 

the good news.

Not Sorry But Wise

 A  L  O  H  A !

The art of advocacy is 

to lead you to 

my conclusion 

on your terms.

       Adam M. Grant

Affliction comes to us, 

not to make us sad 

but sober; not to 

make us sorry 

but wise.

      H. G. Wells

In Asian languages, 

the word for 'mind' and 

the word for 'heart' 

are the same. So if 

you're not hearing 

mindfulness in some deep way 

as heartfulness, you're 

not really understanding it. . .

. . . Compassion and kindness 

towards oneself are intrinsically 

woven into it. You could 

think of mindfulness 

as wise and 

affectionate attention.

                                                 Alan Watts

There's something like 

a line of gold thread running 

through a man's words when 

he talks to his daughter, and 

gradually over the years it 

gets to be long enough for 

you to pick up in your hands 

and weave into a cloth 

that feels like love itself.     

John Gregory Brown

Sometimes words

would only ruin

our communion

Yesterday I was clever, 

so I wanted to 

change the world. 

Today I am wise, so 

I am changing myself.
