The Mango Tree

In distant field mango tree stands alone
           waiting for sky to open
       to bring forth new fresh fruits.

A lovely kimo, Olusegun. Growing up in South FL, I know the mango tree very well. I love the fruit but I'm allergic to the sap so I can't t pick them and my neighbor has a tree. Talk about frustrating! If someone picks them and peeps them for me, I can eat them...best wishes in the contest. Blessings, Rhonda
