stands a dwarf
amidst the huge.
mango and jackfruit trees.
Mango and jackfruit spread
far and wide , present a canopy
towering over the garden.
Picturesque to espy.
The orange tree
reaches to their middle
competes with them
in yield.
Its fruits, no bigger
than gooseberries, taste
sweet and sour, could be
gulped in one mouthful.
I collect hundreds of them,
extract the juice, to make
orange squash.. A delicious drink
I store for months.
