Pearl of Great Price
Kelea was a pretty girl
Who loved to surf with rip & curl
She felt so alive
When surfers would dive
Just to see Kelea's pink pearl*
* Kelea Nui-Noho-'Ana 'Api 'Api
was said to be the most beautiful woman on
earth, married Lo Lale, High Chief of Lihu'e,
but left him to surf the waves off Waikiki.
