Thumbs Up To The Mangoes

The mangoes green 
 hang all over the tree
 
 the squirrels have a feast 
 with them the bees enjoy 
 so do the men  with a love 
 the unripe ones are so wonderful
 none could desist from tasting 
 the mouth waters with a devour 
 the small ones that fall are bitter 
 the pickles of these are crazy 
 the salt and chilli added 
 make them delicious 
 a few days after 
 these would turn ripe 
 shine with a golden yellow
come there a majority 
 incline to pluck and store 
the alphonsa, the malgova,
 the sour ones and the grape 
 the varieties that abound 
 send a feel of nostalgia 
 thumbs up to the mangoes 
 big and small
 green and yellow.
