She raised her family on Molokai and now lives on Maui where her children, grandchildren and greatgrandchildren also reside. Her ambition was to be a roller derby competitor. When she was twelve it came to her in a vision that her life would revolve around the care of children. Her inspiration to create poetry comes from her lifes involvements with her spirituality, with people as she took on various jobs, with her family and with the mana (energies) of the islands all entwined with her personal insights. A follower of Dr. Wayne Dyer, she is in the process of creating her own Book of Possibilities. This, too, inspires her poetry. Each of Wahines poems commemorates something or someone important from her experience be it an event, a person, an intuition (a sixth sense). My guardian angel gives me courage and strength. So my journey is sealed with the spirit of Aloha Mana o l o: to have faith, trust, confi dence to believe. In Hawaii we are so blessed. Our lifestyle is simple. The dreams we have carry messages for all to understand the changes and the movements. We were brought up to know that all things have rhythm and to show respect for the universe. In her Dedication Wahine shares her love with her creator and her family. In her poetry she is sharing her life with us as well.
