Ephemeral Life...

She Shared Tonight... That Under Her Moonlight... For Every Stolen Passionate Kiss... There was a Lonely Untimely Death... For Every Awakening Dream of Peace... There were Unspeakable Atrocities in War... For every Selfless Compassionate Act... There were Heartless Cruel deeds... Yet Over the Centuries... The Good far Outweighed the Evil... That Kindness Healed the Wounds of Cruelty... And the Blood Sacrificed through Love... Far Exceeded the Blood Shed through Hate... Such is the Balance of Humanity... Such is this Incredibly Beautiful Life... For Love... Shall Always Prevail... Always...

 

  Harvest Moon and Jupiter over Kou...

 

 

The Supreme... The Most High...

Aloha Kekahi i Kekahi... Love One Another...

Such Stillness... And Peace... In my Heart... From Simply... Knowing... And Loving... Beautiful You...

My Wanton Love... For Sacred Beautiful Her... Reverberates Endlessly... As She Bleeds... Forth New Life...

To Savor... Each Precious Ephemeral Moment... Of this Shared Journey... Each Gentle Caress of the Heart... To be Immortal... To Simply Become... The Universe...

Never Relinquish... Hope... That Tomorrow... Shall be More Beautiful... More Peaceful... And More Loving... Than Today...

 

Each New Day... Allows You... To Tear Away... The Chains of Your Past... To Atone... And Seek Forgiveness... To Begin Life... Anew... Redemption... At Hālawa...

In October of 2019, I watched this endangered Hawaiian crow form with the Moon in a Powerful Hōʻailona. A Spiritual Message... The 'Alalā was already a powerful symbol for me as my late sister, Nālani, did some Beautiful watercolors of them thirty-years ago. With so few left, they survive in captive breeding programs.  They represent the stubborn resiliency of our kānaka ʻōiwi in the face of the extinction of our Native Rights, and the wanton destruction of our sacred places, the stealing, poisoning and wasting of our Precious Ka Wai Ola a Kāne, the Life Giving Waters of Kāne, in our streams, and the capping off of our Sacred Springs, the poisoning of our 'ʻĀina, Precious Papa-Mother Earth, and the continued desecration of our " Most Cherished Possession " as a people. The iwi, the bones, of our Beloved kūpuna, violently ripped from their Eternal Rest. A year and a half later, I understand this Hō'ailona more perfectly now.  My Spiritual Teacher, Guide and Protect...

 

Night Falls... And In The Silence... Kissed by Moonlight... I Endlessly Fall... For You...

I Will Search... Until the Ends of the Universe... And the End of Time... To Find You... Once Again...
