The Orange Tree

The bright orange spheres sparkling in the scintillating sunlight
I could never be more joyful, your tangy scent infusing my senses
Your branches smooth as glass, pleasing to stroke
Emerald green leaves, swaying in the wispy breeze
Every time I visit you, every time I sit beside you
I feel serene and tranquil, content with myself
Like there are no issues in the world
You stand there, like a single surviver warrior, ready to conquer
Yet, your presence makes me feel like we are not alone
Like we will never be alone
