Giovanni's Shrimp Truck

On the leisurely windward coast of Oahu,the tents and tables of Giovanni's Shrimp Truck
are almost filled to capacity
The garlic aroma engulfs you
as you approach the inked white van,
littered with hundreds of creative comments
and vibrant signatures,
jotted down by satisfied locals and tourists.
All three choices on the handwritten menu
are mouthwatering scrumptious delights.
An affable, tanned young local
greets you with a grin,
"Watchu like?"
"Gahlik Shrimp wit' one scoop rice, please."
Soon,
after settling down,
you begin sucking all garlicky juices
out of each shrimp,
and great warmth of relaxation suffuses you,
in shade of a scorching hot, yet breezy day.
