Honolulu Streets and Pets

A L O H A !

Before you can follow

your own drummer,

you have to hear

the drummer.

Srikumar Rao

Dogs are small

rays of light

caught on earth

for a short time

to brighten our days.

When you get into a

tight place and everything

goes against you, till

it seems as though you

could not hang on a

minute longer,

never give up then,

for that is just the place

and time that the

tide will turn.

Harriet Beecher Stowe

When you get older

you keep warm with

the wood you gathered

as a youth.

Bambara Proverb

Storms draw something out of us

that calm seas don't.

Some Paddle

A L O H A !

You can't live a perfect day

without doing something

for someone who will

never be able to repay you.

John Wooden

Plumeria, usually a child's first Lei

E lei kau, e lei ho‘oilo i ke aloha.

Love is worn like a lei

through the winter.

He ho'okele wa'a no ka la 'ino.

"A steersman for a stormy day."

I pray for President Biden

🛶

The canoe stands for the island,

the community. Some steer,

some paddle, and some

only ride along.

On islands, in

small communities,

where people know

one another,

we must paddle together

if we want to get anywhere.

Those who do not

believe in the voyage,

are not forced to paddle.

But, being a

beloved community,

they too will share the

benefits

of the voyage.

The door is always open,

to join instead of jeer.

Industry, economy,

honesty, and kindness

form a quartet of virtues

that will never be

improved upon.

James Oliver

Hearts rebuilt from hope

resurrect dreams

killed by hate.

Aberjhani

True friends are those

who lift you up

when your heart's wings

forget how to fly.

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
