Timid, twas her heart's tithe
As parting her silken garment
To offer her bride love's bloom.

led by the amazing majestic ebony flying seal
murder of crows came toward the beach
ready to do whatever the Hawaiian princess asked

my freckled legs wade through it
whiffs of a beach-fire
take me back to childhood days
close 'nough to warm, but not scorch

My friend worked at the Zoo
Every day he smelled like animal poo
  Monday's he clean the lions den
  the next day he became, Hawaiian.
Leaving behind all the goo on his shoe.

Premium Member On a Hawaiian Plateau

You said “I do”
I said it too,
That amazingly magical day,
On a Hawaiian Plateau.

Now that nineteen have come to pass,
I have no more wild oats to sow,
You will be the last lover,
I will ever know.

as feminine as fox fur and mink
Hawaiian pearls and high heels shoes

Premium Member Headed For Midway Island

To beautiful glorious Hawaiian Midway Island I am bound.
Terrific hope in my heart, and an old 70’s boom-box for sound.
You cannot stop me. Headed for the ocean, I want to feel alive!
Then I will ask my grandma. She does not care that I am only five!
