Tropical Fruit


The watermelon is ripe
when the agouti takes a bite.
The guava is nearly at its peak
when a jays jabs it with its beak.
The cashew fruit is ready
when the parrot has it in its belly.

We have yet to see
if it will be we
who are the pigs
that get the figs.

  1. I like this! I would be one of the pigs staking out the figs... :-)
