Under the Mango tree

Under the mango tree

Here the kids are wild and free

Without care or worry

Aiming at the fruits with intensity, never weary


 Under the Mango tree

The adults gather the children

Ready to share stories that were passed on

Some scary, some cheery


In the cover of dark

The sound of  a dog’s bark

Is lost in the embrace of lovers

Cocooned and sheltered under the mango tree
