Sunrise on the black sand beach at Kalapana, Life is peaceful and undisturbed Except for the soft swaying Of the coconut palms. Air pungent with sweet plumeria, The rhythm of the surf Like Pahinui's Ki ho Alu Stirs the music in my Soul. The sun makes his royal entrance Surrounded by his retinue, The full spectrum Alii nui Caped in a mantle of Purple red orange blue green yellow clouds, Adrift in a sea of Color. Aloha Oe!
