Nature says
“Not yet but soon”
”Today is not to bud, but bloom
and tomorrow is for juice.”
Mango says, "Master is hungry,
and Master is coming...”
towards me."
"Mango, soon..." Nature whispered.
"Bright colourful petals today and
ripe juicy flesh tomorrow."
"Remember Fig -
leaves but no lunch." Mango cried.
"I do, Mango. I do."
"Time says November;
mangoes are never in November
but in March."
"But, Master is hungry,
in November and He
is coming ... towards me."
"Mango, do as you please.
But, today is to bloom
and tomorrow is for juice."
"Nature, I know. Never have I
had to defy Time but Master
is hungry and I want to feed Him."
"Master made Time.
Master made
me. Master made you. He will
understand. Won't He?"
"I know. But, I don't want
Him to understand. I just
want to..."
"Mango, He will understand.
It's still November and the Master will find juice, in multiple, soon."
"No, Nature. A handful of ripe juicy flesh
for their young ones in March. Why
not a tray for Him in November?
A cup of smoothie for their
aged in March. Why not a jug
for Him in November?
I have wasted at their harvests, my remains, meal for flies. Why not
be spent for Him, in November?"
A soft smile on Heaven's
lips, upon Mango in November
whose love ripened, not in season.
