Ode To Palm Trees

Ode to Palm Trees                                                                                                                
Some palm trees are small, some are tall                                                                               
But no matter how they look I love them all                                                                                     
Palm trees oh palm trees your fronds are so nice                                                                            
When I look at them, they put me in paradise 
The shape of your leaves, sharp they may be  
They pull me from distress and relax me 
 
The fruit that you bare, sour they taste and poisonous they can be  
As I look at your fruit it seems so heavenly 
Looking at your colors which all seem so bright 
They glisten in the warm Florida light 
 
The bark that you wear brown in color it seems to be 
As I look at it, it seems as though its smiling at me 
Some come in clusters some are alone  
But no matter where palm trees grow, I'll never be on my own 
The way that palm trees grow always seems to fascinate 
That’s one reason I live in the sunshine state
