mango
just picked this mango
from under it's tree
brought it up closer to see
it's peach and rose blush
it's firm yet pliant touch
the bouquet giving a rush
fully ripe darling
just like you
you're out of touch
lifting the peel gently
from this amber soft flesh
and mouthing it's softness
right to the seed
I'm eating this mango
but it's you that I need
you're at the office
helping to fund our love grove
the fruits of our labours
indeed a rich trove
juice is now running
down my forearm and chin
teasing the fibres out
just for a whim
thoughts rambling wildly
out of the blue
oh babe
I'm so lost without you
from under it's tree
brought it up closer to see
it's peach and rose blush
it's firm yet pliant touch
the bouquet giving a rush
fully ripe darling
just like you
you're out of touch
lifting the peel gently
from this amber soft flesh
and mouthing it's softness
right to the seed
I'm eating this mango
but it's you that I need
you're at the office
helping to fund our love grove
the fruits of our labours
indeed a rich trove
juice is now running
down my forearm and chin
teasing the fibres out
just for a whim
thoughts rambling wildly
out of the blue
oh babe
I'm so lost without you
