O, Heart, What A Wonderful Bird You Are.

~ Rumi ~

still in the glow of the full moon shining on the stillpoint of creation and the bounteous aloha spirit perfuming every breath, we arise early to explore this otherworldly landscape and begin an ascent along the chain of craters trail guided by trusty sherpas, the nene or hawaiian geese who have transmuted themselves to survive this harsh environment… web feet into claws for moving over the lava fields…

as we begin the descent down to the ocean, we have a panoramic view of the lava flows stirring the imagination transporting us into the timeless zone of  being here now…
