Hawaiian Sunrise

Pink plumeria, midst the boats. Hibiscus buoyant in moonlight. A Hawaiian sunrise, she floats. In my teal eyes, a blinding light. Fluorescent peak near New York Bay. The studio lighting with ties. A brightened set, no quiet quay. Smiles big, as she chats with the guys. Those ties lollygag, with fashion, whilst their counterpart shows her smarts. Big blue eyes batting compassion. In their midst, she’s the ace of hearts.
