Wearing The Sky

 A L O H A From Honolulu!
Be a nice incident
in someone's life
today!



Rainbows are gay space lasers.
That's why they're not straight.

Australian Native Red Bottle Brush

A vision sweet upon the breeze, Scattered rubies on the trees. Green and red, smashing hue, Nature's confetti in skies of blue.

Turtles always strike me
as devastatingly serious.
If turtles could talk, I'd believe
everything they said. Erin O'Brien





I am wind-tawned and sun-browned.
Wearing the marks of the open. I reek of freedom. Muriel Strode

Kindness and Tenacity

A L O H A From Honolulu!


Hope will never be silent. 
Harvey Milk 

A man who changed the world
through kindness and tenacity,
making friends not enemies.
Today's "activists" could learn
MUCH from his Wise Aloha





Fiery words quick and dark
Leave a wound that lingers and sparks. Silent long breath, a moment to take, Mends the bridge
before it breaks.
Cloudia Charters




Pink! Oh Pink!
Tell me, dear friend
What do YOU think?





People often say, with pride, I'm not interested in politics. They might as well say, I'm not interested in my standard of living, my health, my job, my rights, my freedoms, my future or any future. If we mean to keep any control over our world and lives, we must be interested in politics.
Martha Gellhorn


I will not follow where

the path may lead, but

I will go where there is no path,

and I will leave a trail. Muriel Strode

Majestic Tolerance Common Enchantments

A L O H A From Honolulu!

We wait, starving for moments of high magic to inspire us, but life is full of common enchantment waiting for our alchemists eyes to notice.
 Jacob Nordby

the joy of the good,
the wonder of the wise,
the amazement of the Gods.

At the end of the day,
what really matters is that
your loved ones are well,

If The Liars Turned Blue

A L O H A From Honolulu!

Blessed are the weird people:
poets, misfits, writers
mystics, painters, troubadours
for they teach us to see
the world through different eyes.
 Jacob Nordby


Remind us that all of this,
every bit of it, is for love.
Keep us fiercely kind.
Laura Jean Truman




All we need, really, is
a change from a near frigid
to a tropical attitude of mind.
Marjory Stoneman Douglas 


If all the Liars turned blue
we would know just what to do.
We would not believe them
nor pay-back deceive them. 
But go our way 
as the honest folk do.
Cloudia Charters

Tea Fragrance Room

A L O H A From Honolulu!

Life gives us more gifts in a day
than we unwrap in a year.
John Sarris 



Poised as a statue carved in concrete,
The only stillness on the street
Delivery trucks rumble cacophony, Yet her silence blooms in mystery. Scent of frying noodles
sweet and strong, As Chinatown shoppers
hurry along...
Cloudia Charters
Char Hung Sut means
Tea Fragrance Room
[smell of the tea-house]




Laughter is the shortest 
distance between two people.
              Victor Borge 



 'Twas not given for thee alone,
Pass it on;





Let it travel down the years,
Let it wipe another's tears,
'Til in Heaven the deed appears -
Pass it on.
        Henry Burton

I like the intimation that
our actions reverberate far
further than we know.
And that someday we may
fully appreciate how far!
Cloudia





Self-control is something
for which I do not strive.
Self-control means wanting to be
effective at some random point
in the infinite radiations of
my spiritual existence.
Franz Kafka
Me Too!
Pixie

Not Trifles

A L O H A From Honolulu!

What sunshine is to flowers, smiles are to humanity. These are but trifles, to be sure; but scattered along life's pathway, the good they do is inconceivable. Joseph Addison


Staying kind, calm, and
keeping an open mind 
are radical acts today!




Petals soft as satin sighs,
Plumeria twirls down from the skies,
To paint the grass like colored snow,
Springtime blooms in gentle glow.

Nature's art this fragrant sea
Sweet perfume to the trade wind's glee.
This lawn of blooms a tropic grace,
Touches of heaven in this place.


Carpet soft, a fragrant bed,
Spring time's whispers gently spread.
Cloudia Charters




When you begin to touch your heart or let your heart be touched, you begin to discover that it's bottomless, that it doesn't have any resolution, that this heart is huge, vast, and limitless. You begin to discover how much warmth and gentleness is there, as well as how much space.
Pema Chodron





Those who cannot change their minds cannot change anything
George Bernard Shaw, 





A good listener is not only popular everywhere, but after a while, knows something. Wilson Mizner
