Da Bambucha Kabocha Pumpkin Moon
Gazing
from my Hamakua-facing window.
Da moon
is looking like da bambucha Kabocha pumpkin
growing in Grandma's garden.
Can make plenty pumpkin tempura wit dat big bambucha one in da corner,
she would say,
pointing, with her crooked finger.
Now
it's floating,
way,way up high,
like Bruddah Bully's boogie board,
on a bambucha, ?ele?ele-black sea.
Waiting,
For da big swell.
Aloha Guest,
Pololei ʻoe.
