Notes About The Poem

Listen to poem:

The Slow Hands Flies

The Slow Hands Flies

'Your soft slow hand feels like flitting fireflies ' 
Albeit, naught fireflies had, but slow hand flies,
Here in Hawaii where our slow hands rise,
E'er so smoothly, while they lift to the skies,
Their flowing long arms stretch lengthwise,
Everybody slow hands fly, both gals and guys,
First, they start lowly then lift to natural highs,
From the very young to the elderly, all tries,
Hula dancing where slow hands emphasize,
Graceful, slow hands express artful surprise,
Ageless taught form, traditional to modernize,
Tantalize, mesmerize, slow hands they realize.

Andrea Dietrich February 24, 2020 at 8:00 PM Beautiful description of this most lovely dance. Great use of contest theme. I like your new contest. I like that you give us a way to use our poem in another contest if we so choose William Kelii Kekaula February 24, 2020 at 8:51 PM Thank you, Andrea, the option offers entrants a peace of mind, availing entrants mobile freedom and further exposure of their artful expressions, without fear of hurt to a sponsor who makes it quite clear from the get-go, --that there is none (hurt) to be had -- Aloha!~@wk
