Best Hawaii Poems
Time In HawaiiA month in Hawaii, ah, what a luxury to share
Revel in the warming sun and walk a sandy beach
Fresh warm breeze and coconut in the salty air
Every day is marvelous, comfort never out of reach
Hiking through lush green forest with fruit hung all around
Or on...

Flora Crescendo In HawaiiI believe that long ago, the universe’s most artistic landscaper mixed woodlands with tropics, mountains with heaths, and streams with waterfalls that were next blended with an ocean. Man named this place, Hawaii. The absolute awe that, to me, is Hawaii, is bound...

A New Star Shines Above Hawaii
On this warm and clear tropical night,
a new star in heaven shines its light.
It rises high above Hawaii,
over the palm trees for all to see.
On the beaches, the waves crash around.
Listen carefully, there’s a new sound.
It’s an old familiar melody.
Sweet notes played on a ukulele
joined...

Santa's Hawaii VisitHoliday Humor- Limerick Set Poetry Contest
Tania Kitchin
It's Christmas in Hawaii tomorrow
And the blue skies be bright with a rainbow
Santa gets in a grass skirt
And a red Aloha shirt
He makes his way from each home's patio
He'll island hop a surfboard and skateboard
And path his gifts free...

A Glimpse of HawaiiA tunnel of branches with leafy green shade
Arc over the winding quiet road
On our windward island’s side
Heading toward the north shore
Where giant waves treat surfers
To the thrill of a lifetime in winter season.
Look deeper into the tunnel of leafy branches
To espy the trail of ants...

Surfing In HawaiiIn spite of the snow, in spite of the cold
I'll be surfing in Hawaii, such joy untold
Well maybe in dreams
Hear girlies cute screams
Dreams, my friends are much richer than gold...

Horror In HawaiiWrote this for Carolyn's Vacation Humor contest, but I went a little overboard
with the amount of lines.
It was such a big elation
Finally getting my vacation
Two weeks off with lots of plans
That were supposed to be be so grand
A second honeymoon to take
A welcome...

Hawaii-My Favorite DestinationPalm trees in the pineapple breeze,
c a l m chameleon ocean up to my knees-
Beach sands with pebbles in my hands,
oh, to not return to the Michigan's freeze.
HAWAII ways as the mountain sprays,
wearing pink lays as the sun f a d e s-

Hawaii Five-OAs a little boy
Hypnotized by gyrating
Hips and bare navel
As an adult man
Light-skinned exotic women
Always more preferred...

Hawaii Or StratfordA collaboration with Annalise Brigham
On cold wintry days when my thoughts take flight
I‘m off to the great Pacific and her tropical lands
All exotic remnants of paradise in plain sight
How like footprints they seem upon the ocean, grand
Lush, vibrant green foliage and the richest colors ignite
As...

Hawaii Five 0Hawaii Five 0
Jack Lord, detective, cut a dash,
Hawaii surf, and barbecue bash,
flowery shirt, and big black hair,
gave the crims, a run; fair share.
Now he’s gone to movie-heaven,
boat drinks, swims and Seven-Eleven,
And when one day, they ask, who he?
Just remind them “he”; big hair...

Island AlohaIsland Aloha
Tall and lovely palms are swaying island fair
within the tropical gentle trade wind's flow
as elegant Egrets glide on salty air—
then softly land where verdant short grasses grow.
At sunset whales are breaching, a sight so rare.
Divine Humpbacks swim with little calves in tow.
Cast away cold...

Ko Olina Place of JoyPicture a tropical paradise - faraway
Colorful leis of fresh fragrant flowers
Worn by hula dancers that sway
Sandy beaches and leisure filled hours
Soft waving palms on a moonlit bay
This island where mountains reach down to the seas
You’ll be filled with Aloha wherever you go
Soothed by the...
