All I can recall

From my archaic cerebral matter

Is the scent of bursting lemon trees

Acidic bulbs beginning to shatter


They stand like statues

Pristine pedestals of yellow

Strewn across the rough terrain

Stoic yet mellow


And every night 

At the dusk of creation

Orion raises his bow

And they dance in jubilation


Swaying left, then right

With the rhythm of the night

Bowing their blooming heads

To the feet of the riverbed
