From the warm lap,
Of a vineyard,
The mango,
Dressed,
In the evening moonlight,
Orange,
As an exotic sunset,
Basks,
Upon the vines,
Like a gypsy,
In a flamenco stillness,
Within,
The vineyards,
Sweet sanctuary,
The tropical winds,
Caresses,
The mangos,
Flamenco dress,
And the enlivened mango,
Dances,
Like a gypsy,
From kiss to kiss,
When one caresses,
A mango,
And sips,
Its exotic wine,
The mangos sweetness,
Like an exotic woman,
Dances on,
The miracle of its sway,
A salsa tune,
From kiss to kiss,
The mango,
A rare harbor,
Of resilient sweetness,
And tender love,
The mango,
Sweet,
And exotic,
As a lovely gypsy woman,
The sway of her flamenco hem,
A crescent hip,
And an exotic thigh,
Uncorks,
A vineyard of sighs,
A bonfire,
Of heavenly desires,
From the warm lap,
Of a vineyard

mango madness
the best mangos
I ever had
were in India
in the early spring
mango madness
spreads across India
as mangos are in season
and mangos are everywhere
on every menu
so sweet
so fragrant
so magical
mango madness
takes over
my soul
as I eat my mango
dreaming mango dreams

Ripe Mangos
overripe mangos
falling from a pregnant tree-
worms ready for feast

Mangos
Sugary wet fun;
moons of mellow tangy flesh,
tropical dessert.
