Passion, hula, and politics in Hawaii as lovely Kelia Nimura joins Hawaiians trying to stop bombing of Kahoolawe Island off Maui and end land evictions...
This flower!
This droplet in the ocean of beauty
That He sent to us
Each drop of it writing the poem of His love
Each crest and fall showing His invitation to the heaven
And the roar of which
Compels mankind to sing,
I long to hold it close to my heart
And grab it all
Embracing the whole of it
And become part of it
And also make it part of myself….
In my vain attempt
To grab the whole of it,
Grasping the rose and
The thorn along with it,
I left my blood rushing out
To show its eagerness to
Dance to the divine tune.
Knowing well that those
That complain about the bleeding hands
Are but fools,
I am pouring these droplets
Of my blood on this flower
Decorating it with the redness
That becomes a sparkle
Of the first ray of the sun
On the tides of the ocean of beauty.
