Palm seed, how much I cherish your
temptation!
The first night your essence blessed my buds
I felt as though I traversed a tunnel of lights
You made of my palm an image of a baptism.
and, now, when want paints the source
of sweetness, I reminisce your glory.
a glory I first beheld that night mother
Made out of you a merry meal
which then clung to my thoughts.
I won't forget your wonder:
how you worked as a deliverer in the
first quarter of this calendar
When weak edicts gave room to tyranny
where you not the same from which
mother invented new recipes?
Palm seed, this fellowship of ours is
divine. I feel like a groom who can't have enough of
his bride's gentleness.
I'll sing your eulogy for so long
and, shall remain a
patron of your glorious essence.
