Hawaii Nights

On my family's vacation to Hawaii,

I would wake up in the middle of the night,

And sneak off my cot,

And go to the kitchen to make Quik,

I would listen,

While sipping my warm sweet Quik,

To the beat of the waves,

Crashing,

Against the rocks in the darkness,

And I'd see the queen palms,

Fly back and forth in the wind,

Swaying like Drunken Pirates,

The waves made a sound so magical,

I wanted to hear it forever,

And jump into them,

But I stayed on the balcony,

With an empty Quik glass,

In my hand.
