Aloha mau loa

My eternal love for you...

Author's Note

I lived in Hawaii for a very short time but still have my Hawaiian dictionary. A beautiful world. A beautiful language.

Mahalo ke Akua
Aia ke aloha i koʻu puʻuwai,
a i kēia manawa, i kou puʻuwai
Mana aloha
Kuʻu mea a pau nou
Lei aloha naʻu iā ʻoe
Aia ke aloha i kou puʻuwai
Aloha mau loa

Thanks to Divine Spirit
Love in my heart
now in yours
Love magic
My everything poured into you
My love garlanded around you
Love lives in your heart
My eternal love for you

Magnificent, this is the kind of poetry I love reading., it touches the heart for sure.
Your poem expresses a deep, eternal love that transcends mere affection, like a spiritual bond that enriches both lives.

Really beautiful...

Beautiful words, beautifully intentioned.. many thank yous for offering their meaning.

'My everything poured into you
My love garlanded around you'

That is love in the true sense of the word.

Thank you so much for your endless kindness here, Emma! I so hope you are finding summer as sweet as it gets. 🌞

Yesterday I was twenty one again! The weather was warm, there was a gentle breeze, the birds, and two dogs had fun joining in at the feast and of course, added to the clamour.. Live was as it should be, smiley, warm, peaceful in a strange way, loving and so forth.. all we good and welcome with open arms! I would wish that to everyone in our world, especially those y like yourself who have been long time friends, are now new friends, or strangers yet to know! And yes, summer right now is as sweet as it could be.. forgive my English however, it's deteriorating by the moment. Take care, sir.. please very much.

That sounds like an absolutely perfect kind of yesterday! Thank you for sharing the poetry of those beautiful moments. Still hoping to get back to all the seasons here... at the cafe... life is a bit like Mr. Toad's wild ride just now. 🐸🚙

"Love in my heart now in yours."/"My everything poured into you."
Such a simple, yet powerful way to remember the true meaning of the word 'Love". It's such a beautiful thing, yet some have the ability to complicate it to such extremes sometimes or just take advantage of another's.
I actually visited Hawaii on vacation a few summers back & it was such a magical place--our hotel even had penguins! Our last night there, we attended a Luau and it was a really spiritual experience, so good to take time to learn/embrace another's culture and language. I don't have a Hawaii dictionary, but...I actually have a Russian translation dictionary, in case I wanted to mix things up a bit XD

Thanks always for your lifting words! And so happy hearing of your Hawaii vacation. It sounds like a memory that should be thought of often. Look at you go with your Russian!!!🤗

Softly romantic and beautifully enchanting.
A magical place, a magical language, a romantic pen.

You are welcome Craig.

Beautiful words indeed.
I would have loved to have visited this beautiful place I'm my youth, but I wasted much of my time visiting places like New York, Chicago and California, which should be banned for so hot. But now with the after effects of long covid taking what health I had I fear it might be too late, unless a new left lung becomes available.
Might need a few other transplants by then, but we can always dream, can't we?
We do have some things in common though. We wear kilts, which as i am Scottish im allowed to call a skirt and Hawaiians wear grass skirts! Plus, anywhere Billy Connolly is happy to call home is fine by me. 😃

My friend, reading your words made me smile and think about traveling again! So glad it guided your thoughts to some amazing places. Hoping now that you stay strong and inspired in all you are... in all you do.

This is a beautiful poem to tell someone how much they mean to you.
