Alphabe Thursday - "H" Is For Hawaii - June 9, 2010



"H" is for Hawaii,
It truly is great,
This lovely island group,
Is our 50th state!


Born of volcanos,
From deep in the sea,
Each island is special,
I'm sure you'll agree.


Incredible scenery,
Mountains of green,
Breathtaking sunsets,
Like you've never seen.


Delectable seafood,
Abounds everywhere,
Exotic fruits like papaya,
And heartier fare.


Whatever you want,
It will be within reach,
From clubbing all night,
To laying on a beach!


It's a mecca for surfers,
Some born without fear,
Waves reach forty feet,
At some times of the year!


Hula dancers sway slowly,
To the beautiful tunes,
Of ukele and slack key,
Or a singer who croons.


Full of interesting history,
One can easily see,
Its cultural diversity,
Benefits you and me.


Would that all nations,
Could live side by side,
As the people of Hawaii,
Set an example world wide.
