The Little Fig Poem by Juan Olivarez

The Little Fig



I

From a big fig tree,
I took a twig.
That was bare to see,
And it became a little fig.
That I watched in it's infancy.

II

That bare little twig,
In the moist, rich, ground,
Grew into a fig,
So big around.

III

And the sweetest figs,
Now do abound,
On the bare little twig,
I stuck in the ground.
