From the Mango Rights Corporation, here’s part of a poem titled If You Were a Mango
… I’ve seen a pumpkin turn into a coach
and rats turn into coachmen
So I see no reason why
You can’t turn into a mango
‘cos the 1st deadly sin
I’d gladly commit for you
Your gluttonous concubine
I’m obsessed with you
Raid every fruit store from Brixton to Lewisham
to stock up on you
Chutney, salad, smoothie
Get gastronomically sensual with you
Turn Buckingham Palace into a mango plantation
I dare her to defy you
I know
Fantasy
is just having its own fantasy
Mentally playing me
with thoughts of you
and though it was fun while it lasted
now I think it’s time
to think of a different fruit
or veggie if you like!
it’s my fave fruit of all time. i looooove mango.

My favorite fruits!
Beautiful food and great words too.
I love mango and the imagery of the poem.
Mango is a fave fruit for me. It’s so delicious and I had never tasted mango until I traveled to SE Asia so it’ always reminds me of that wonderful trip 🙂
