Turtles... Island Dreaming... Walking Barefoot in the Sand with a Friend... Day Dreaming... The Story... Roses...

Turtles...
I met a friend
she had a story about a turtle
I had a story about a turtle
they were simular stories
turtles are slow
and cars are big
the cars survived
but the turtles did not.
no matter how slow or fast you go
sometimes you need to stop
to see what is in front of you
our friendship was a turtle
it did not survive
we forgot to stop and look at what was in front of us...
 
Island Dreaming...
We are all explorers, aren't we?
Looking...
Searching...
Questioning...
Discovering...
Learning...
What is an island dreamer?
Maybe dreaming of hot exotic island beaches?
Maybe dreaming of planets in the sky far away, yet to be discovered?
Yet, maybe discovering the cool place down the street to hang out and eat something new.
Or maybe...
...just close your eyes and hear the sound of the sea and wind on the shore...
...feel the warm wind of the ocean brush across your body as you lay on the hot sandy beach...
...and have an island dream...
 
Walking barefoot in the sand with a friend
A walk barefoot in the sand with a friend,
years ago...
while snow fell in January in a freezing Chicago winter, back home,
sunny on the beach,
hunting for seashells,
peering into the tiny elevator window of the Pink Hotel "Xanado" on the beach where Howard Hughes lived,
sitting in the rain on the beach on a warm sunny day,
eating Conche salad in the afternoon,
dancing to the local Hip Hop at nite,
and then enjoying the effects of Conche salad in the nite...
Years later... I woke up and the dream was over ...
 
Day Dreaming
been day dreamng...
 
Everyone has a story
everyone has a story...
intertwined with others...
never ending ...
 
Roses
A rose,
so delicate,
smells so fragrent,
so pretty,
but lookout, beware...
if you quickly grab it,
you will hurt yourself on it's thorns ...
