THE DISCARDED FRUIT

Together in the orchard I grew,
of promised sweetness and lovely hue.
Spreading of petals, from seed and then me,
I dreamt of this as every expectant be!

I battered rain, hailstorms and the sun,
like a dream it was so much fun!
Mockingly came the twist of fate,
the purity of my soul, my Creator met.

I fell to the ground, my scarred skin,
my cries never heard by my next of kin.
Orchard like the society discarded me,
my tears dried and wails echo in eternity.
