Although it would be easy
To run it through a filter
I shall refrain, this entry
Better to see its TRUE COLORS
And even better still to witness
The disasters down in Leilani
With your OWN two eyes… and marvel.

On one sunny day 🌞
We cruised up to Pololu
Embracing Hawaii nei
To find a patch of bamboo
Swinging on ropes
The verdancy washed by
Then an ill-advised swim and…
Subsequent waiting to dry
Yet we pushed on
Scrambling up the slopes
Found a spot with a Grand View
Though it was not Pololu
’Twas a new valley
Name: Honokāne Nui
Brushing past spires of bamboo
The Antidote to Ennui
(In case you’re new to this lovely word “ennui” it’s pronounced ahn-wee.) Thanks to everyone who helped make that day possible! You know who you are.

You can watch the road get covered
You can watch your old life burn down
But CHANGE is part of your process
In sadness, you don’t have to drown
For above that sharp, raw earth
Unfolds a spectacular vignette
We learn what the lessons were worth
And bask in the golden sunset
A big mahalo to everyone who reached out, in any way, and brightened my week. This is for you. 💗

What is fixed?
What is permanent?
In this ever-flowing,
Ever-changing
UNIVERSE
Of warm light,
Lava rock,
And Ocean?
Hawaii is a focal,
A point of change
Formed by a hotspot
In the middle of the ocean.
How remarkable,
So blessed I am
To live
On an Improbable Rock
