Hawaii ~
Gentle trade winds softly blowing
The scent of the plumeria fills the air
Sea gulls flying in a cloudless sky of blue
How awesomely beautiful, Hawaii are you.
Your palm trees, slowly waltzing in the breeze
Around secluded coves and plunging waterfalls
The ocean sends it's waves to gently kiss the sand
GOD'S bucket of beauty, HE spilled on this land.
Morning brings an awe inspiring sunrise
Across pristine beaches, lining your shoreline
Then GOD sends HIS signature, the evening sunset
A special gift of beauty, nothing compares with as
yet.
Paradise, your name is so well deserved
From the era of your Kings and Queens
Still your beautiful spirit of aloha, I find
Hasn't been lost in the distance of time.
Hawaii, land of my most treasured dreams
Since I have looked upon your beautiful islands
Forever in my heart, will I long and desire to be
In this beautiful land of aloha, far across the
sea.
