MERRY MAUI CHRISTMAS
"Merry Christmas, Merry Christmas,
Santa screams."Yowee
On Dasher, on Dancer
take me to Maui!"
Orchids, Anthuriums, Proteas,
and Birds of Paradise
He packs his flower boxes,
and checks his list twice.
"Now fly to the mainland
where it is covered with snows.
I'll be back to get sunburned,
and feel the sand in my toes.
And say goodbye to my stuffy red coat
and moldy black boots,
Give me rubber slippers, straw hat
and a baggy swim suit."
A sled stacked with flower boxes
glides over the Pacific,
Santa arrives on a rooftop
with his gifts so specific.
A chimney awaits him,
he is lathered with coconut lotion
With sand on his belly,
he smells like the ocean.
He is draped with an orchid lei,
an aloha smile on his face.
"Don't need to be a florist
to put these tropicals in place!"
The colors are striking,
Island flowers made the day
Take me back to Maui,
it is my time to play.
To the beaches of sunshine,
golf, poi, and the hula.
Hana, Wailea, Haiku,
Lahaina, and Kula."
