Time Capsule: Mango Tree

Mango tree

When I was young you fed me

Planted before my birth

A gift from my grandmother

Mango tree

Your roots held our memories

Each fruit another blessing

Sweet nectar dripping unto me

Mango tree

A final monument for them

Though they were gone it still stood

Shade provider my love insider

Mango tree

I haven’t seen you for some time

Are your leaves still vibrant

Or have you been forgotten

Mango Tree

I promise one day I’ll come back

We can spend time together then

Just don’t wait up It will take a while
