Lemon Seed

By Ben Fetterman

In many a lemon,
Lays a seed or five.
The more green thumbed among you
May have tried to plant this
And see if you could make it thrive.
But more likely than not,
It never sprouted
And you failed to realize
It was surrounded.
The white seed is actually a coat
That when removed
Allows the seed to grow
Into a beautiful
Lemon tree
