Aloha
Aloha means hello and goodbye
Affection, peace, compassion, mercy
Welcoming you as we meet
Bidding you farewell as we depart
The first aloha invigorates
As you anticipate new adventures
Luaus, hula dances, whale watching
Hiking to waterfalls and volcanoes
Gliding along in an outrigger canoe
Riding bikes down a mountainside
Relaxing on sunny beaches, snorkeling
Sampling macadamia nuts and poi
The second comes with sadness
and promises to return.

And return we shall
to those shores that will
cocoon us...
aloha.
Cast your flowers on the water. (Bread won't do)
