Hawaiian kine
Cali kine
isle Man
mainland
Wahine
bikini
a shakka sign
a unique design
two hands shaking
ship to ship
one of many cold sails
another curved and designed
for warm waves
above Mano
below Akua
with the wind
a mind bridge
sky surfing
a flat rainbow
C & H style
California beets
island cane sugar
sprinkled
on my cereal
Volkswagens & rusty Toyotas
road trips around the island
up and down the poppy coast
a golden blanket warming
mother nature’s bright bed spread
awaken our senses in spring time
waterfalls carve ridges into your
jagged volcanic mountains like
grooves in a giant chocolate Hershey's kiss
with ridges flaking off we watch them dig
back down to Pele's inferno
in the oven of the Pacific
a giant cauldron of coco
magma and lava
bubbling up forming
new earth every day
in nature's unstable
belly-button
where Kilauea
flows to the ocean
to chill Cali-style on the
Big Sur coast in a field of wildflowers
or to talk story wit da braddah's
at Pinetrees
watching the waves
roll along the beach
telling da kine and da
other kine
hello, Hibiscus,
all pau Poppy
Until next time Mahalo!
