FightA Poem by prema
FIGHT
The proud hybrid mango tree Stood in the middle of the orchard Very young, still laden with golden mangoes The sight of it is neighbour's envy. Not far away stood the two Parenting trees, old and tall Also bearing fruits of their own species And when wind blows they do murmur. Once when grew fierce the winds Their murmur turned into a verbal fight Each were eyeing the golden fruit Claiming it to be their own family. The owner happened to pass by He suppressed the outbreak of a laughter What fools are those grand old trees! What silly arguments do they make! Golden though it's no match To the taste and flavour of the other two The centre tree just an ornamental one Whereas the other two serve real purpose.
