Message to My Sistah

I just did
wat I talked about doing

wen we wuz visiting
on da smartphone.

You told me

wat you wuz eating 
foa breakfast da adah day

and it kinnah inspired me.

Da last time
I ate French Toast

wuz wen I wuz living
in Hawaiʻi years ago.

So I wen actually
make some dis morning

and I topped 
da tasty slices off 

wit some kinamona
and some Ohio maple syrup.

I’m eating right now

while I’m tinking 
about you

and looking at wun picture
of our parents 

on my living room tabletop.

It’s just like

I’m in da yellow kitchen
up in Wahiawa Heights

at da old house.

Da hoʻomanaʻo is ʻono.

Da French Toast
is pretty good too.
