Fluff

There was someone I wanted to speak with yesterday ..

she's gone.

There are others I think about ..

gone as well.




Space they occupied ..

is different now.

Quiet

solemn and still.




Selfishly I wish them back ..

sadly they can't return.

Silence fills their void ..

answers evade my queries.




I beg one moment ..

an instant to share

unspoken words ..

puke out my fermented thoughts.




Words .. each nuance .. all meanings

intended or not

join the cosmos ..

permanently.




We have our time ..

a brief flash ..

when all is said that can be

our time is past.




As wisdom grows ..

words become precious ..

fewer ..

measured.




One opportunity ..

exhalation complete.

Gift or dagger ..

delivered.




Give words like diamonds on satin ..

eternally bathed in light.

Anything more or less is

Fluff.

Steak au poivre

Anything and everything pertaining to growing, gathering, and consuming the luscious papaya is a perfectly pleasant and positive experience.
Selecting and drying  seeds 

Preparing the earth

Watering .. gentle labor of peaceful anticipation

 That moment when seeds burst forth .. thrilling

The baby is born

Begin the watch of time

Begin my watch of diligence with pleasure

Select one plant

Reverently remove all but the one

Hours, days, weeks, months .. a sturdy tree appears

then flowers

 fruit

Carefully I take from the tree

Generously the tree gives.

When the skin is golden

When the aroma calls

I cut it

Remove the seeds

Marvel at the taste

Await the next miracle from our yard. 

___________

One day I h0pe to attain strength of conviction to change and grow

 never again cutting into the flesh of a dead creature

because, unlike the process of killing ..
Anything and everything pertaining to growing, gathering, and consuming the luscious papaya is a perfectly pleasant and positive experience.
but ..

 A fantastic chef awaits in France ..

with steak au poivre.

Merde !!

I'm so friggin' weak ..

but I keep trying ...

from Kauai to Paris .. and all places between

Aloha et "Au poivre"

Kissed by the Flowers

They quietly sit ..

 moved by breeze ..

dancing joyfully with the wind.

Picture
 Many times have I passed ..

missing their beauty

fractured thoughts swirling aimlessly

Picture
Vigilant lovers

they patiently wait

regal splendor in silence

Picture
Countless times I've been the fool

self absorbed

prancing proudly amongst them

Picture
When this fool awakes

priorities emerge

receptors open.



Only then do they scream 

"Come .. be kissed by the flowers" !

Pure Love


from Kauai to Paris ... and all places between


Enjoy their Gift

Aloha,
Bill

We are the Humans

It is a beautiful day on Kauai ..

this day defies negativity ..

 joyous by nature ..

sun drenched

peaceful

soft





Wherever you are


purposely .. thoughtfully

grasp nature's gift

 undisturbed

gentle

quiet





We share the breeze

  the bird's song ..

We all inhale

floral perfumes ..

 Father Sun warms 

every face





We are the Humans ..

bound to one another

differently perfect

inextricably connected

within nature

forever





It is a beautiful day on Kauai ..

as clouds gently dance

I think of you 

with love

whoever you are ..

We are the Humans




from Kauai to Paris .. and all places between
