Aloha from Kauai

Today I saw whales breaching

flinging their huge bodies out of the water,

and dolphins spinning through the air.

I saw dazzling green cliffs

eroding into the fingers of the Mother.

There are valleys where a being

could lose a lifetime.

I know that here I can rest my head

in the open hand of the Mother,

I am wrapped in Her presence

as she breathes in, then exhales.

Time- past and future disappear.

There is only glorious sunshine

reflecting off coconut palms and banana leaves,

birds calling, and tender, gentle air.
