Of A Hawaiian May

"As the trade winds
blow through her hair
I am thankful I am there."

I told her I would
buy her a new dress
and there it was
in the window
of Papaya's,
a halter top
medium length
size small,
a fine dress
to wear
to romp
to play,
a perfect fit for her
in the eighty plus
weather of a
Hawaiian May.

Great idea to buy that dress. Yes.

(smiles)  Given the weather in Hawaii year round, wouldn't that dress be considered a sort of staple?  Just saying...  

Loved the imagery of your poem. You took us right there.

How nice to live in such luxury each day, too cold where I live, and too short the warm seasons
