Memories of Hawaii

 I had gone to Hawaii with my paternal grandmother after I had graduated high school in 1980.  These two poems were written sometime afterward - I'm guessing that same year.


Banya

 

Twisted hands

move slowly

outstretched

and wrapped

around

each other

tied

and embraced

forming

a trunk

 


My Hat

 

Everyone admired

the pile of grass

I bought 

Originality

and personality

is what

Ive got

I put it

       on my head

so everyone

would know

It says a lot

about me

everywhere I go
