Kohala The Place To Be

By: Shania Fuertes

Kohala

Is the place I call home,

Kohala is a small town

Where the children can play and run all around

Most of us are from Hawaiian Rootz,

grounded in our way

“Ua Mau Ke Ea O Ka Aina Ika Pono”

is what I live, day by day

In Kohala everyone gets along

like beach days with mom, going up mauka with dad

Those were the best moments

I have ever had.

In Kohala, there’s green grass

and blue skies

Whenever I turn I always see

family’s having the times of their lives

Kohala is my home and the place to be
