Started from a seed
Growing into a tree
With sunlight
With water

Through the day and night
Their beauty showcases their talent
Growing into a beautiful wonderful fruit
Tender with a skin filled with color
Like no other

By the ocean
Feeling the ebb of the sea
Watching the tide from up in a tree

Juicy and sweet
Tasting me is like going on a retreat
Yellow and orange
Ripe to fall
The man come to eat my giving soul
