Notes About The Poem

Aloha My Friend

*Image of Lewis Milton Hankins

aloha my friend
a bevy of doves
laurels wrestle a whirlwind
fair plumes coronet
                        ~"The Last Token"~03/22/21 
 
weasels and foxes
snow tracks charging the blizzard
freshness soothes the wit
                         ~"On Bullying"~12/08/22 

sun setting a scene
evening stages curtain calls
a hall full of stars
                         ~"Forever in My Heart"~09/03/22 

*Narrowing the involvement of his generous enlightenment, even as much as spotlighting these chosen few, I rested upon his constant hope, that 'Their Heart Are Truly Forever'~~Aloha, Milt & Deb, my friends...
