E-yes are glued to the branches, 
N-o fruit is untouched.

Hugs can be like mangoes
sometimes difficult to disengage.
Some are so worth the effort
others are just fair to middling.
Next, compare cling peaches....

those mangoes so rotten
that make your teeth yellow

Climb high and remain there
those dwarf mango trees
You are sure are unreachable...

My childhood smells of the
Mellow fruit hung on trees
Mother mixed spices for
Mango pickles.Today
Mason jars she packs for
Me to take. Hurts to say-
Ma! Customs won't allow

Gray ships
Docks and ports

Palm trees 
And mangoes

Fresh breeze
Wide relief


A night on shore
Red lips, hot breath

Oh, no
Baby wails

Woman sits on golden land
Bundle in hand

Agony
The choice....

summers are known for
the schorching sun, longer days
and starry short nights

summers are known for
the mangoes, sweet melons
and loads of ice creams

summers are meant for
long vacations and more time
with friends & family...

Basking in exotic sweet laced scent
        Under the soft sun's glow lambent
    Prance in orchard relishing mangoes succulent

Tantalizing green was the color of spring green mangoes.
Sitting high, calling out to me again from the windows!
Pray a strong wind comes around
Lays them down on the ground
How I want to taste them, but “You'll fall sick” ,Ma echoes!

dark smell of
chlorophyll
overripe
mangoes
to a pulp
crush on
the golden strands
virgin fingers
entrap
kindness is a journey
through the burnt
fields of poppy
encircling the
ruined temples
of passionate 
love
her rivers reach
into
deep lakes of
wants
under the
calm surface
of peace...

Spring-formed bunch of fresh green mangoes
Hanging in joy from packed green thick nodes
She aims a stone at one green end
It misses and hits her new boyfriend
The green garden bursts into broad grin laughter
He stops speaking to her again after…

Tanno my daughter of the dewling's wish
                            Sheds pearls all the day with Grimmelwood's swish
                                                 Elves collect the pearls
                                                   For leprechaun girls
                                    And ripe wild mangoes fall with a squish...

for my good friend Akkina,

When he eats mangoes he can tango
He eats a lot his belly is like a pot
Sometimes he swallows the stone

His belly rumbles and groans 
So juicy so fruity he forgot
The mango man will eat from a can

Given the choice he picks nice and ripe
Numerous species from tropical trees
Addictive taste nothing goes to waste...

Eyes see 
         yellow mangoes 
                                on the long trees. 
bodies shaking before
                            reaching mangoes. 
 Tongues itching before 
                                        feeling sweet. 
Daydreams coming because of deep hungry, 
All are victims 
as yellow mangoes are so sweet.

Sun glistens with brilliance on tropical seas.

Under a palm tree we sit as a breeze

Meanders the island, and ripened on trees,

Mangoes are hanging – to pluck if we please!

Enjoying nature, we are sun’s devotees

Relaxing to beach songs, completely at ease.

They grow on 
Short and tall trees
All year long.
Their juice so sweet,
Succulent,
For everyone
Who loves tropical sweetness.

A king had all the food at his table
somewhere in modern Africa
power to feed kingdom he had
red hunger came flying in as vampire
subjects wept calling for rescue
children were little flesh-less cartoons
but the king laughed and told them
“Go, eat mangoes in  bushes if hungry”
An  obedient pregnant mother of five
climbed mango tree to pick food
Lo! she fell down dying instantly!...
