So it is a curious thought how much of the sand on that pretty-looking Hawaiian white-sand beach actually came out of a parrotfish's digestive tract and how much of it is simply crushed shells and other material. Hawaiian white sand beaches For many people, powdery white-sand beaches are the ideal type of beach. White sand is mainly made up of calcareous, reef-derived material, such as crushed corals and shells. An example of a Hawaiian white-sand beach is Waimanalo Beach on Oahu. www.to-hawaii.com/hawaiibeachsand.php

Where the road ends

Throughout the afternoon I watched them there, Snow-fairies falling, falling from the sky, Whirling fantastic in the misty air, Contending fierce for space supremacy. And they flew down a mightier force at night, As though in heaven there was revolt and riot, And they, frail things had taken panic flight Down to the calm earth seeking peace and quiet. ............................. ~ "Snow Fairy" : Claude MeKay

If they are doomed and all that can be done Should fail, if they must die and disappear And we must see them dying one by one, Summer and fall and winter, year by year Until there comes a summer so bereft That over river, meadow, pasture height No last and solitary elm is left Lifting its leafy wings as if for flight— Let us not make our grief for them too great And say we wished that we had gone before, Making the fate of elms too much our fate, Seeing the always less and not the more. Though elms may die, not everything must die: Not their green memory against our sky. ~ Fate of Elm ~ Robert Francis
