‘AI KA MANU I LUNA (the birds feed above)

An attractive person is compared to a flower-laden tree that attracts birds. ‘Ōlelo No’eau- Puku’i, MK

In the nahele (forest) of Hawai’i, the ‘I’iwi bird relies on the ‘Ōhia lehua for nourishment. The symbiotic relationship of the I’iwi bird and the ‘Ōhia tree are representative of the sensuality between male and female.
With its sickle-shaped bill, the male I’iwi bird sips the sweet nectar of the female lehua, a metaphor for love everlasting.

Hau’oli lā aloha iā kākou from the MANAOLA ‘ohana ❤️
