Pineapples are a major agricultural crop in Hawaii, and large fields of the stiff, greyish rosettes are a common sight. 2 years after planting the fruit can be harvested. Even though they are a fruit, they create magical fields of beautiful flowers.

With this I am going to end:
Much like the scent of a flower,
aloha emenates from the heart.
Those who are centered in aloha
cannot help but shower unending
love and beauty on the world.
