I have heard about the tasty fruit when it ripens
and the legend says lightning won't peep to your premises
if you grow a mango tree in your yard,
But I am very unhappy as I cannot climb on my neighbour's tree.
* I humbly dedicate this poem to the authoress of the novel 'The House on Mango street' written by Sandra.Cisneros.
You seem to have empathy with small helpless creatures. Praise for your sympathetic heart. I have not read this book which seems to have made such a great impression on you. Take care. Always your friend, Sandra

An unusual coupling - the tiny ant and the sensuous mango with its magical properties. Your poem impels the reader to check out the book that inspired it. Another unique poem with a tantalizing fey quality. love, Allie ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥
