How many days
after a mango ripens
will it fall on the ground?
A child will cup the hands
sweet gravity
of the fruit falling.
The faintest light at dawn,
faintest light at the end of day
paints the earth and sky
celebrating appearance and departure.
How does a child learn
a mango tree, receiving and giving
life begins on earth?
