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
