HAWAIIAN SHAVED ICE
The multicolored
azure, and crimson,
amber, and emerald
scoop of shaved
Hawaiian ice
greets the warm embrace
of her summer sun.
The rays of his white light
recognizes every colored hue
in his own refraction.
Her ice melts.
Drops glisten like
watercolored tears
down a white canvas cone.
