Lahaina Serenade Poem by VICTORIA HEIM

Lahaina Serenade



Lahaina Serenade

Meet under the expansive Banyan tree near the Waterfront
Amazed at the anchored Tall Ship
relax as waves roll over the shore
By~gone days whalers came
These days many come as the Big Whales perform the
Lahaina Serenade
They know that this is their domain
Some say there is a tuneful sound as they pass by
Wait and the Huge arch of the whale's back
Ah~there will soon follow the slap of the gigantic tail
Those that live here say
'Maui no ka oi' ~ Maui is Best'
