Merry

Month of May, Tropical

Noon, grandfather's salon

Go for a ride, country side,

Mango orchard, full and ripe.

Flesh succulent, delicious scent.

Peel to make a dig, take your pick

Shake it well with milk, add to it ice.

Dress your glass, enjoy fresh taste

Golden fruit blend good inside.

Yellowish pink, bluish green

Camouflaged skin

the fruity queen.

Her aroma, no one can resist

actively, arouse every taste buds.

Endless varieties with beautiful names,

My favorite drink is a Mango Lassi.
There is no drink more refreshing
nor is their any fruit more pleasing
or tempting.

Ah, yes. The mango. My mother and wifes favorite. See, like my "Ode to a Trashcan" we can poeticize about anything.

Peace.

This is a brillian 'Ode' to one of my favorite fruits.

I do belive,
you are correct in calling it the "Queen of fruits".
Was told that apples are the forbidden fruit. I believe
that all have been mistaken. Insticntually I know it was
a 'Mango' that was the original forbidden fruit of
paradise.

Great 'Ode' Keep writing - Keep the faith.
