Coco Palm Tree
I planted a coco palm tree
Under our porch near our alley.
The sunlight peers through the lattice screen
My coco palm tree still gets its vitamins
I nurtured it with so much love.
Like a mother caring for her child.
When it's about five feet tall and slim
I replanted it in a special place in our garden
Lilies and daisies I planted on the perimeter
It's beautiful to look at the colorful flowers
Now the palm tree is about seven feet tall
How I wish I could be that tall
So I could reach the fruits without climbing the fence
My coco palm trees start bearing fruits for nourishments
The young coco so sweet and refreshing
Like the nectar of the gods in spring.
