I Am Not Writing a Book of Poems in Hawaii

Rick Lupert heads to the ho-lei land in his 26th collection of poetry written (despite the title telling you otherwise) in, and on the way to and from, Oahu Hawaii. With his characteristic wit and occasional bits of wisdom, Lupert's third eye takes us all over Hawaii's capital Island experiencing magical fruits, sea turtles, Lost filming locations, at least two luaus, wild-roaming chickens and the sweetest family spirit you can imagine. In Hawaii, as soon as you show up, they declare you are ohana - family. Let these humorous and accessible poems bring you into the family as you contemplate your own visit to paradise.
