Tiny green baby mangoes emerging from fragrant blossoms.... I daydream.....
Many will drop off in the midday heat. Some will grow. Tender mangoes will be plucked long before their prime, to tickle your taste buds with fine tender mango pickle, manga chammandi and maambazha pulissery to make you smack your lips and bite your fingers. Children will ask you to cut the tender mangoes, sprinkle salt and chili powder, and together you'll drool.
A few will grow to ripen, some claimed by the birds and the bats. Children, nay, humans young and old, will suck on them, smiling ear to ear, the sweet yellow juice running down their chins, and flinging the stones away.
Have a great day!
