Coconuts

Coconut trees are the trees of life
Providing needs at time of joys and strife.

Delicious drinks and foods from their big fruits
Soothing our tummy with loud hunger hoots.

Everyone can survive longer by coconuts alone
Providing shelter for protection and a lovely home.

Home with utensils, furniture and decorations
From all coco parts— capturing visitors’ attention.

Cleaning and working tools from leaves, trunk and shell
Toys for children to enjoy their childhood life so well. 

Coco oil and juices have healing and beauty wonder
Coconuts are life-saver from God, our greatest provider.
