the lime tree


Every Chinese New Year
The potted lime trees grow
Into the households for good luck
On the families who buy it

It's like branded good
Once the season is over
The household owners will throw away
The lime trees have served its purpose

Once there was a lime tree
The house owner kept it quite a while
The blossoms had gone long time ago
The house owner didn't want it any more

We asked for it for the garden
The lime tree now looks healthy and bearing fruits
It needs some nutrients now it is standing tall
In the garden showing off its colour of dark green
