This is an interesting poem that the author has created with this piece of writing. This is a lovely poem about an idyllic lifestyle on the pacific islands. That is why we holiday on paradise islands.

"live nothing" should either be "live, nothing" or "live. Nothing...".

"weathers" should be "weather's" or "weather is".

"Saunter" should be "saunter".

"event" should be "events".

"ones" should be 'one's" or "one is".

"America Hawaii" should be "America, Hawaii".

May wish to reconsider these suggested edits.

Poem itself depicts life, as you view it, in Hawaii.

I love the artwork that you choose to go with your poem it is a perfect match.
Your word sounds to go to be true. You make is sound like Paradise. I know when white man came over there it had to change a lot .Except to certain parts of the Island I'm sure is clam a peaceful as you say. Just wondering.

It does seem like an earthly paradise - how different it must feel to live and abide in such a place'Everyone's happy and no one's ever late'-a sojourn there would be well worth experiencing

Thank you for sharing the time factor about Hawaii. I love learning new things. It's a great poem that captures the essence of the slow and leisurely Hawaiian people. Thank you for posting.

Excellent work here, mate. A nice way of describing how is it to live in Hawaii. This poem reminds the readers that its not just the money that we should value, that everything is not all about money. We should also value our time with the family and friends, relax and feel happy with our loved ones. People should also make some time to enjoy what the nature could offer.

The image used added interest in reading the poem. I enjoyed this one.
"Life on an island is a reason to celebrate"
Good job mate. Keep writing and thank you for sharing this one.

People in Hawaii are laid back "Hawaiian Time" This is an excellent poem you have developed here about Hawaiian Time. It tells us that there is more to life than money. Very well done. I particularly liked this last line: 'Just a rock in the ocean rolling with the tides.'

I suppose it's a secret recipe of golden sun, turquoise seas and swaying palms :-) I have spent some time there myself, and even though I live now in the south, I still find Hawaiian time is a different kind of slow. Here, it is about "decorum". But on the islands, it's a matter of being in synch with nature - waterfalls and oceans flow. . . perhaps that's the connection :-)

Nicely said Earthwriter :-)

I've always heard that Hawaii was a true island paradise. I got to go there once while stationed in the Marine Corps but we were only there to get a minor repair on the ship I was on. With such a brief stay scheduled in port, we were forbidden to leave the ship.
It sure looked beautiful from the topside deck.
Your wonderfully well written poem makes me want to return there again for a much longer visit.

Well done, Earthwriter.
