'Eclipse of the Sun'
by Karin Lisa Atkinson
"at a barbeque they sing
karaoke in the back
kitchen framed only
by waxed edges of looming
jungle wailing
their taut brown heads
cocked back releasing jagged
notes into dense night they
rest their arms on each other
on dad his fair spanish
skin made fairer by three
and a half seasons of california
coast and the contrasted dark
trunks of his friends’ arms
i wonder what distances
they bridge with this affection
what loom of land focuses
what species of bird indicates
approach"
~ Dr. Selina Tusitala Marsh 1971- (New Zealand/Samoa/Tuvalu)
Poem "Reunion"
New Zealand Poet Laureate for 2017–2019

'Core Values'
by Karin Lisa Atkinson
"Imagination is the instrument of ethics.
There are many metaphors beside battle, many choices besides war, and most ways of doing good do not, in fact, involve killing anybody.”
~ Ursula K. Le Guin 1929-2018 (USA)
Excerpt from her book “Cheek by Jowl” (essay on fantasy writing and why it matters)

'Expect the Unexpected'
by Karin Lisa Atkinson
"If one advances confidently in the direction of his/her dreams, and endeavors to live the life which he/she has imagined, he/she will meet with a success unexpected in common hours. What lies behind us and what lies ahead of us are tiny matters compared to what lives within us."
~ Henry David Thoreau 1817-1862 (USA)

'Dimensional Layers of Self Awareness'
by Karin Lisa Atkinson
'Nature does not hurry, yet everything is accomplished.
When I let go of what I am, I become what I might be.
Mastering others is strength. Mastering yourself is true power.
Do the difficult things while they are easy
and do the great things while they are small.
A journey of a thousand miles must begin with a single step.
A good traveler has no fixed plans, and is not intent on arriving.
When you are content to be simply yourself
and don't compare or compete,
everybody will respect you.
Being deeply loved by someone gives you strength,
while loving someone deeply gives you courage."
~ Laozi 老子 4th Century BC (China)
He is also known by the names Li Er 李耳, his courtesy name is Boyang 伯阳 and his posthumous name is Li Dan 李聃

'Big and Small Things Count'
by Karin Lisa Atkinson
“The man that I named the Giver passed along to the boy knowledge, history, memories, color, pain, laughter, love, and truth. Every time you place a book in the hands of a child, you do the same thing. It is very risky. But each time a child opens a book, he pushes open the gate that separates him from Elsewhere. It gives him choices. It gives him freedom. Those are magnificent, wonderfully unsafe things."
~ Lois Lowry 1937- (Hawaiian Islands archipelago)
