I ka hema, kūkulu ʻia ka kapakai o ka Pākīpika e nā kahakai lōʻihi me ke one maikaʻi, hoʻoliʻiliʻi ʻia e nā paia kū i luna o ka pōhaku ʻoʻoleʻa. Mai ke kahawai ʻo Coahuayana a i nā Balsas, wehe ʻia kahi kaula o ke one mehameha, hakakā, mamao, a me nā kahakai kahakai.
Mai nā pae kuahiwi hanohano e kūlike ana me ke kapakai, iho haʻahaʻa ka pae honua i luna e pau koke i ke kai, me nā pali ʻoʻoleʻa, ma nā wāwae e haki nā nalu me ka hana ʻino loa. ʻO kona mau pali e like me nā kiaʻi e noʻonoʻo ai, no nā mile he mau kilomika, ke ʻano o ka kahakai. Hoʻopili ʻia nā awāwa liʻiliʻi a me nā kahakai ma waena o nā wahi nunui o ka pōhaku igneous e hōʻike ana i ke kumu o ka lua pele o nā pōhaku kolosal, e like me nā ʻiʻo ʻoi o nā dinosaurs prehistoric, a komo i loko o ka wai kahi e hana ai i nā ʻala a me nā mokupuni.
ʻO kahi tangle o nā lāʻau a me ka ulu ulu e uhi ana i nā pae mauna, ma kapa o nā kahawai a me nā kahawai, hiki i ka exuberance o nā mea kanu tropical i kona piko. ʻO nā lāʻau mulatto nui, me nā kumu ʻulaʻula, piʻi i ka lani, i kahi hakakā ikaika no ka lā, e kūʻē i nā ceibas a me nā kumulāʻau. Ma hope o ka ʻauʻau ʻana i nā wahi lush, kānana ka lā ma o nā ʻāpana o nā lau mānoanoa a hana i nā kaula luminous lahilahi e hoʻopilikia ai i ka pouli o loko o ka nahele, kahi e ʻike ai i nā fungi a me nā lau e hū i ke ola mai nā kumu; a me nā lianas a me nā mea kolo, i loko o ka huhū huhū, hoʻopaʻa i kekahi i kekahi, e loulou i nā lāʻau a me nā laʻalāʻau, a kaomi iā lākou a make.
I ke ahiahi, ke kukui gula o ka napoʻo ʻana o ka lā e hoʻonui i nā kala o ka ʻāina: ʻo ka polū polū, ke hiki i kahakai, hoʻololi nā nalu i keʻokeʻo ethereal; ka melemele o ke one, e hoʻopiha ana i nā aniani liʻiliʻi ke hiki mai nā kukuna o ka lā; ka ʻōmaʻomaʻo o nā lāʻau pāma e kū ana i ke kapakai a me nā mangrove ma kahi o nā estuaries, kahi e holoholo ai nā hipa e ʻimi i ka meaʻai.
Ma ka hema, kūkulu ʻia ke kapakai e nā kahakai lōʻihi me ke one maikaʻi, hoʻoliʻiliʻi ʻia e nā paia kū i luna o ka pōhaku ʻoʻoleʻa. Mai ke kahawai ʻo Coahuayana a i nā Balsas, wehe ʻia kahi kaula o ke one mehameha, hakakā, mamao, a me nā kahakai kahakai. ʻO kēia kahakai o Michoacán, kekahi o nā wahi paʻa hope loa o ka nani kūlohelohe o Mekiko, ma hope o ka hapa nui o kona kahakai a me nā kahakai nani i hoʻouka kaua ʻia e nā wahi huakaʻi nui, nāna i hoʻololi i ka ʻāina a huki i nā kamaʻāina maoli.
ʻO ke kaʻawale ka mea i hoʻolilo i kēia wahi ʻāina i puʻuhonua kūpono no nā holoholona lōhiu a me nā hui kanaka like ʻole e hakakā nei e mālama i kā lākou mau kuʻuna kenekulia a me nā ʻano o ke ola, i ke alo o ka hoʻouka kaua maikaʻi ʻole o ka lāhui hou e luku iā lākou. Noho ka hapa nui o nā ʻōiwi i ia wahi i nā kaiāulu liʻiliʻi ma kahakai, kahi o ka ʻōlelo Nahuatl i pani ai i ka Paniolo. Kūleʻa kahi lewa a pīhoihoi i loko o nā hale kūʻai liʻiliʻi o nā charrerías, me ka ʻole o ka uila, hoʻomālamalama ʻia i ka pō me nā ipukukui, nona ke kukui uila i kūʻai ʻia ai a kūʻai ʻia i kahi ʻōlelo ʻano ʻē a archaic, e hōʻike ana i ka ikaika o ka alo o ʻO nā moʻomeheu kahiko, me nā aʻa paʻa a paʻa pono i ko mākou wā hou.
Mai ka wā kamaliʻi, kahi ʻano ʻokoʻa loa o ka noho ʻana: nā keiki e ulu a pāʻani i nā nalu a i ʻole e holo manuahi ana i nā kahakai. aʻo lākou i ka lawaiʻa ʻana i nā estuaries kokoke lākou e aʻo hele wāwae; hoʻokomo ʻia i loko o kahi honua kūlohelohe, kahi i hoʻopiha ʻia ai ka manaʻo i hoʻopuka ʻia me nā moemoeā. A ʻaʻole hiki ke ʻano ʻē aʻe ia, i kahi hoʻonohonoho nui a lākou e hoʻomohala ai, i ka pilina pili loa me ke kūlohelohe, i waena o nā pōhaku pohihihi o nā kiʻi vague o nā holoholona a i ʻole ka lima nunui e piʻi aʻe ana mai ka hohonu o ke kai a kuhikuhi i ka lani. , me he mea lā he hōʻailona hope loa ia o kahi pilikua pōhaku e poholo ana i lalo o ka wai.
Ma lalo o nā mokupuni i hana ʻia e nā pōhaku nunui, ua hana ka hana o ka wai i nā tunnels kahi e komo ai nā nalu me kahi halulu ikaika i hana ʻia e ka haki ʻana i nā paia pōhaku, e puka aʻe ma ka ʻaoʻao ʻē aʻe i hoʻohuli ʻia i hau.
ʻO ka huhū palena ʻole o nā nalu o ka moana e kūʻē i ke one, hoʻonui i ka pō, i ke kai kiʻekiʻe a hoʻonāukiuki i kahi leo kuli a hoʻoweliweli hoʻi, me he mea lā e hoʻāʻo ana e hōʻole i kona inoa: ka Pākīpika. Hiki ka ikaika o nā nalu i kāna hana ʻoi loa ke hoʻonui i ka nui me ka hōʻea makahiki o nā cyclones; a pakele i kona palena, me he mea lā e hoʻi hou ana i kona ʻāina, wāwahi ia i ke one a hana hou i nā kahakai. Hoʻololi ka lani ʻeleʻele i nā lā i ka pō a hana i kahi lewa apocalyptic spooky; lawe mai me ia i kahi kai a Kahinaliʻi e hālana ana i nā moena o ka muliwai, holoi i nā pali o nā puʻu, hāpai i ka lepo a me nā kumulāʻau, a hālana i nā mea āpau. Hoʻopili ka makani ʻino i nā lāʻau pāma a wāwahi i nā hale, e hoʻopuehu ana iā lākou i ka lewa i ka nāhelehele. Ke ʻike nei i ka kokoke o ka haunaele, ua haʻalele ka honua; Holo wikiwiki nā holoholona a kūlou ke kāne.
Ma hope o ka ʻino, hoʻomau ka mālie. I nā napoʻo maluhia, ke hoʻopiha ka lani i nā ao ʻākala, kū ka lele lele ʻana o nā manu i ka ʻimi ʻana i kahi puʻuhonua i ka pō, a kūpikipikiʻi nā piko mahu o nā lāʻau pāma e ka makani ʻoluʻolu.
Hoʻopili ʻia me ka ʻike o ka ʻāina ka noho like ʻana me nā mea ʻē aʻe a mākou e kaʻana like ai i ka honua. Mai ka ʻōpae hermit liʻiliʻi e hāpai ana i kāna pū nui ma luna o kona mau poʻohiwi, e huki ana iā ia i loko o ke one a waiho i kahi ala o nā ala like liʻiliʻi; ʻo nā honu kai kupaianaha nō hoʻi e ukali nei i kahi kāhea pohihihi a hiki ʻole ke hele aku i nā kahakai i kēlā me kēia makahiki i, ma hope o ka huakaʻi ʻeha ma waena o ke one, waiho i kā lākou mau hua i nā lua liʻiliʻi i ʻeli ʻia me kā lākou mau wili hope.
ʻO kekahi o nā kikoʻī pīhoihoi loa ʻo ka honu wale nō i nā ʻōmaka ma kahakai kahi o nā kukui hana ʻole. I ka wā o ka spawning, ke huakaʻi hele ma kahakai i ka pō, he mea kupaianaha ka ʻike ʻana i ka nui pouli o nā mea kolo, e alakaʻi ana iā lākou iho i ka pouli me ka pololei ʻole. Ma ka mōakāka o ke one ke kū nei ke kiʻi o nā golfinas, nā loggerheads a me ka ʻike maoli ʻole o ka lute nui loa.
Ma hope o ka nalowale ʻana o ka make, ua hoʻi hou ka heluna kanaka o chelonians ma muli o ka hana mahalo ʻia o nā hui kaiaulu, e like me nā haumāna o ke Kulanui o Michoacán, nāna i hoʻomohala i kahi hana koʻikoʻi e hāpai i ka ʻike i ka lehulehu no ka pale o nā kuhukukū. ʻO kahi makana kūpono o kāu mau hoʻāʻo ka hānau ʻana o nā pua hatchling, i kū kupanaha mai ke one a hana i kahi huhū i ke kai i kahi hōʻike hanohano o ke kuko ikaika o ke ola e hoʻomau iā lākou iho i ka Universe.
ʻO nā ʻano manu ʻē aʻe kekahi o nā mea kupaianaha o ka ʻāina. I ke ʻano, e like me nā squadrons liʻiliʻi, ma ke kahakai o ke kai, nānā ka lehulehu o nā manu i nā nalu me nā maka ʻoi, i ka ʻimi ʻana i ka huʻa o ke kai e hōʻailona ana i ka loaʻa ʻana o nā ʻāhā ma ka lihi o ka wai. A ma laila lākou e noho ai, nā manu ʻōlapa kino momona; nā nune me ko lākou kua ʻeleʻele a me ko lākou ʻōpū keʻokeʻo, me he mea lā i ʻaʻahu ʻia i ke kapa; kau ʻia nā moa moa e hāʻawi i ke kūpaʻa liʻiliʻi i ka makani; pelicans me kā lākou mau ʻāʻī puʻu membrane; a me nā chichicuilotes me nā wāwae lōʻihi a lahilahi.
I uka, i loko o nā estuaries e kūlou malie ana i loko o ka pali bakau, kū mai nā herona keʻokeʻo keʻokeʻo ʻole i loko o ka lau nahele, e hele mālie i loko o ka wai aniani a me ka wai pāpaʻu, e hoʻāʻo nei e hopu i nā iʻa liʻiliʻi e ʻauʻau wikiwiki ma waena o ko lākou mau wāwae lōʻihi. Aia pū kekahi nā aeto a me nā nuku o nā waʻa, ʻo ka ibis me nā nuku meli wīwī; a i kekahi manawa he spatula ʻulaʻula ʻulaʻula.
Ma nā pali a me nā pōhaku o nā mokupuni e noho ana nā manu booby a me nā manu frigate, nā mea e keʻokeʻo ai nā pōhaku e hāʻawi ana i ka hiʻona o ka uhi ʻia ʻana o ka hau. Loaʻa i nā kāne o ka manu frigate kahi ʻeke gular ʻulaʻula hohonu, kahi e hoʻohālikelike nei me kā lākou mau hua ʻeleʻele; he mea maʻamau ka ʻike ʻana, i nā kiʻekiʻe kiʻekiʻe, kona ʻano ʻeleʻele me nā ʻēhepe ʻōpeʻapeʻa, i kahi lele mālie, e lele ana i nā kahe kiʻekiʻe o ka lewa.
Mālama pū ʻia ke Kulanui o Michoacán, kahi papahana o ke aʻo a me ka pale ʻana o ka iguana e hoʻomohala ʻia. He mea hoihoi loa kahi kipa ʻana i ke kikowaena noiʻi kūkaʻina, kahi o nā iguana o nā nui like ʻole, nā waihoʻoluʻu a me nā… ʻala a hāpai ʻia i nā pā a me nā peni!
Ma ke kai, ma lalo o ka mālamalama o ka mahina, hoʻopuni ʻia ka ʻuhane e ka nani o kēia ao hanohano a kupaianaha hoʻi. Akā mālama mau ka lāhui i ke kaulike; ʻOiai ua hāʻawi ia i kekahi mau pono e like me nā moku moto no ka lawaiʻa ʻana, kahi i pani nui i nā waʻa lāʻau kahiko a me nā hoe, ʻo ka hoʻolauna ʻana i kahi moʻomeheu malihini i ke kūlohelohe a me ka hiki ʻole ke hoʻomaopopo ʻia i nā hopena āpau i hoʻokumu i ka haumia o ka ʻāina. me nā ʻōpala ʻoihana, no ka naʻaupō o kāna lawelawe ʻana a me ka nele o nā kaʻina hana e hoʻolei iā lākou, e luku i ka nohona.
