East Indian Delight!

East Indian Delight!

I am King!
Or Queen...
On this island
I'm a big thing.
I sit 
on top 
my throne
can never be taken.
brilliantly blinding
blazing in orange-yellow glows
I eclipse them all.
East to the West
I am the best
I captivate your tastebuds
sugary lava
I will erupt
delightfully,
explosively...
pleasures untold,
hypnotising  -
I do not boast - 
only truth I speak.
Once you taste me
you will be weak
in your knees!

You have to wait
until I give you a taste
of my sweet secrets.
One then another
then you will see
there is more to me
than just this tree.
My nectar will delight.

I am lush
a hypnotic sight!
Coveted 
for my fiery ball - 
and deadly.
Take one bite
you won't be sorry.
Come closer
take a look
smell,
come closer
you will be hooked!

I will make you sit
to see above your head
I will make you kneel
to properly cleanse
I will make you squat
to balance what is on your head
I will make you stand
to see many a horizon
I will make you stretch
to reveal what is hidden
I will make you leap
to grow and touch the sky
I will make you rest
after having passed the many tests
I will be your fortress
so you can shelter from the storms
I will build you up
you will never be destroyed.
