How I long for the shores of Honolulu,
But my girlfriend wants to live in South Africa because she is Zulu.
I remember during my twentieth year wading into the waves,
And how my hoop skirt was soaked and dank like a cave.
I felt so pretty wearing my pink poke bonnet,
And how a local wahine decided to write me a Hawaiian sonnet.
Evermore I will remember the crashing of the waves,
and how I pretended to oh so brave!
