Queen's Bath

Beyond the Kalapana Red Road,
Past the Kumaka'ula Heiau
And the Royal Gardens:
Hidden in a thicket of guava,
Peacefully and serenely lay
That most royal of liquids- Queen's Bath.
There in days of old
The Alii nui and her entourage
Would sojourn for a royal dip
In her cleansing magic waters.
The pond was pristine; her waters pure.
Nestled within that thicket of greenery,
Hawaiian nobility languished
In Nature's splendor,
Peacefully enjoying the tranquility and
Absorbing the Mana of Queen's Bath.
I dove into her sacred waters
And let each stroke of my arms
Propel me backwards in time.
When I reached the other side of the pond
And came up for air,
My heart was transformed
From Haole into Hawaiian.
