Aloha Spirit

Aloha Spirit Sol, with his golden crown, greets me each morning within divine rays extending out over emerald hills and valleys that absorb his warmth of abiding light. View misty alabaster clouds turn from twilight's purple into softest rose just before golden regal rays emerge calling forth fowl to take flight into spacious azure skies winging their way from tree to pole to wherever their heart’s desire on their quest for food for fledglings with hungry mouths agape, loudly peeping in their nests. The sea coruscates in shades of jade illuminations luring early risers with surfboards to ride the surf. Share the scents of floral fair that lingers in the tropic air carried by the trade winds whimsy, enthralling all. Not a poem to 86 but one of lucky number 7 doubled 77!
