Essence of the Place

Today ..

I listen to Piaf ..
Her soul enhances Kauai ..

C'est la Vie .. Today

Caressed by tropical air ..
Spellbound by Edith's essence ..

Tomorrow smiles

Sweetened by yesterday ..
Promised by today's dreams ..

Et La France continues

Stimulator of creative endeavor ..
Challenger of intellectual pursuit ..

Sweetened forever

By the voice of a tarnished angel ..
pleading from human streets.

Life is short ..
follow your Siren ..

from Kauai to Paris .. and all places between

Beautiful, Billy! I thought to write something here but how can I add to what you have given us?? Would we ask for more than the rainbow, the rose and the reminder of life's brevity? Thank you! Thank you.

Esprit de lieu. Exactly. Leaving tomorrow. Scared but trying to stay open like our "little" songbird here.
Mahalo, Bill. You have given me more strength than I can thank you for during these past dark months of struggle. I am deeply grateful.

Lovely, Bill. Your words spark memories of other places, like belle France, and the wonderful people I met. Bel arc en ciel!

Mahalo et Merci, Patty! I'm happy your thoughts were "transported" across the Atlantic .. possibly riding the Bel arc en ciel .. now THAT would be the way to travel !! "All Aboard" the Rainbow Express. Merci for that thought ! Bill

Soul, smiles, dreams. Those are the beautiful words I picked out from your writing. Our souls see our dreams which make us smile.

Thank you for that beauty!

I keep asking myself "Bill, how did you get so damned lucky to have these great people reading your stuff?" .. I will always be grateful. Mahalo et Merci for your insight, Karen .. I truly appreciate it. Bill

You definitely have a poetic soul and a 'way with words'. As Hercule Poirot would say, you stimulate "the little grey cells" to think about life, its joys, sorrows and perhaps its meaning. Thank you!

Cynthia .. I'm such a fortunate soul .. to discover and live my passion. The greatest gift we receive when exercising our passion, our "calling", is the gift of giving to those around us .. Thank You, Cynthia, for validating that universal truth. Mahalo et Merci, Bill
