Kalua Pig Luau
Hawaiian salt massaged pork
drawn from an "imu"--
a hot rocks pit ere covered.
Succulent pulled-pork
tenderly yielding
juice-dribbling
bliss.

Cupid the sweet saintling of Love Village decided to go visit Hawaii
Always dressed in a dapper diaper he looked love struck and dashing
with frosty gold hair combed just so and silver tip wings oh so fancy
he pours love into hearts quicker than a penny in a bucket goes, ping !
When he landed on land he saw pineapples and Hawaiian luaus too
rounded hips slow swaying and voices greeting him like an old friend
They draped leis on his shoulders then said "welcome to Honolulu"
where dreams come true for everyone, yes we got the magic blend;
So they put him on a pedestal for he was after all messenger of love
he surfed in Lanai, Pineaple Island of sweet , oh you should see Him
shooting arrows as he walked on water, fitting them all like a glove
Lei skirts ruffled and feet shuffled, as the stars shone beneath a rim
They danced and they danced far into the night for love was finally here
Cupid did it once again in his dapper diaper and gold tipped spear.
