Mango Love

Come to me, My mango, Darling! My love, Sweet are your juices, Deliciously good, Taste! From your valentine, Savoring divine, Ripe and yellowish, Your flesh! Passionate, Our times! Kisses like wine, Symbolizing, Healing! Sacred my tree, King of all fruits! Flowering Beauty to me, Take me! To the garden’s edge, Feasting! Desiring to eat, There I will dance, My darling! Mango tree! 02/02/2017

very sweet and flowing, Wendy. I only like mango fruit when it has been dried, but I bet the trees are pretty!

Thank you, Andrea x The Indian foods use a lot of Mango, they do wonders with it x I'm useless, Love it any which way thou, but don't like peeling it, It's got a bit stone, I buy it when the shop reduces it, because its very expensive x

OMG! What a wonderful, passionate tribute to a wonderful fruit! I am a true mango lover. In my youth, we had many mango trees growing in our yard and I climbed those trees everyday to get at the mangoes or wait for them to drop from the branches! Oh so sweet and juicy! Now I go to the farmers' market and buy them by the cases! Excellent piece and a 7! Bravo. Pandita

"Sweet" write, Mrs Wendy. I like mangoes but not fresh. I prefer them from a can/jar and just a little cool whip:) Yummm, with three m's.
