Mango Blossom

Mango blossom is the song of  spring
Festive fireworks of youth and beauty
Fragrance of romance tied with wedding ring
Dance of butterfly and honeybee

Mango blossom is like a miniature Christmas Tree
Blooms for a short time to charm all
Birds fly among them for food gathering spree
Happy insects fill the air with mating call


Mango blossom brings dream to the farmer
Good weather will prevail in this season
He hopes to have a good harvest this year
To pay his debt and achieve his mission

Mango blossom makes the children wonder
When the mango will reach proper size
To eat them with salt and chilly powder
Picking them in storm as the juvenile prize

Mango blossom predicts hail storm and nor-wester
Shabby homes may be blown away
Poor people express concern for losing their shelter
They seek divine favor for blissful day

Mango blossom is a great gift of nature
Dreams and hopes dominate forever

[Coyote Poetry]

A amazing poem. You gave life and purpose to the Mango tree. I was station in Central and South America. Now I wished I pay more attention to the mango tree. Thank you for the outstanding poetry for the mango tree.

Similar thoughts haunted me for the past few years.
I observed its various aspects each year during the season of its blossom.

Your insightful review inspired me a lot.

I love how you surround the mango with every feeling felt in the spring of a blossom. You brought up the monsoons and spring storms destroying homes and how people will be sorrowful but as survivors will be hopeful, just like the blossom in the works of blooming. Thank you for sharing your words.

I enjoyed how you personified Mangos in this poem. You may have this tiny poem that you inspired me to write:

Singing Blossoms

Mango blossoms open wide
singing colors in the Spring.
Winter may no longer hide
all the beauty flowers bring.
