THE CASHEW TREE

story by: Kenvil Atkins
Written on Oct 20, 2023 

Between here and there stands a cashew tree
Grandmother called it the mother of all trees
I agree that folks who travel there gather it for free
Year-round it blossoms yielding plenty and then some
Folks around here use it as a landmark to make track
Someday I will return to the cashew tree that’s a fact.
Planted at the back of Safee’s Park there on the track.
