Oh how I would love to come here often and just have some time to be
quiet, breath
and relax
maybe just take a moment to contemplate about my life
and where I’m going
but its too easy to get
distracted in this space…
- its just too beautiful here …
I love this tactile environment - I want to run my hands all through this beautiful
moss, then look at all the details
up close
down
to
every
little micro-organism.
Its very green and lush here, a perfect environment for this moss to grow
along with these ohia trees with their peeling bark and crevices filled with
green fungus
mold
and bumpy looking bacteria
growing
on their stong limbs and stems.
I look up and see the focal point atop a small mound of lava rocks and moss
lies a beautiful and simple buddah head
– its sits there so peacefully and
invites you in to come in and enjoy this welcoming environment.
Aaaaaaaah – yes breath in this forest
and enjoy the moss!
I wish that I could visit here more often…..

Just looking at the photos gives me a peaceful feeling - I can imagine what it must be in real life.
Hi Noel, yes it is a very tranquil environment, i love that setting too! Can you please remind me what is the volcano at the Big Island, is it Kilauea? I remember on the way there we saw the environment looking like that, mossy forest. Maybe because it is already high in elevation.
I wish I could visit more often, too. This was wonderful. :)
So beautiful and tranquil. I love moss.
Hawaii is on my list of places I would love to visit! It looks so pretty.
Hi Noel, On the weekend we visited a nearby waterfall that was in the most beautiful ravine. Many of the rocks were moss covered. There is something so magical about moss. Its green is so intense and its surface so velvety smooth. Moss has a pure simplicity that flowers do not. Perhaps that is why it is so calming and so soothing.
Your pensive soliloquy and vivid photos transported me to a fabulous world of calm and tranquility. I could almost sense the coolness and the humidity and smell the earthy aromas.
Thank you, I need that.
