Topsy-Turvy Tomato

Topsy-turvy tomato
Hanging from my porch
Looking like I've hit the lotto
But maybe I'm torched

This may be a surprise
And you don't have a clue
The tomatoes should be such a prize
But I'm telling you

It has occured to me
When looking up I see
That I might have to climb 
The nearest tree

To claim what
Delicious fruit
Truly belongs to me
