Hawaiian Canoe and Sailboats


Aloha Poets,
                      Hawaiian canoe inspires today's poem. Enjoy!


Mea Ho'okipa Palena'ole Heart


                                "...the art of the stay"


Within a silent zone we seek to find
A time of change to explore in open mind
Innovation seeks its honest urge to sway
Mea ho'okipa is the art of the stay


In our hearts we know the good and true
In kindness a misty Hawaii ocean blue
In graceful feelings a spirit to show
Mea ho'okipa's welcoming glow


Talent on display such a lovely sight
Comfort zone away from the fight
Lasting aloha is palena'ole love
With mea ho'okipa to rise above


Palena'ole heart fly so high 
A life of giving is the life to try
Sincerity in generosity is the start
Of mea ho'okipa palena'ole heart


Visions of love unique in their own way
Natural born in giving art on display
Simple knowing of what others may need
Mea ho'okipa plants the happiness seed


No convincing or conviction need apply here
No forced entry needed or weapons engineer
The opposite of that is enlightened and smart
Mea ho'okipa palena'ole heart
