Coconut! O coconut! O I love your trees!
I’m so lonesome for one.
Are you too? Lost there by the sea.
Coconut! O coconut! O I love your trees!
Strolling through a palm grove,
in the balmy breeze.
Coconut! O coconut! O I love your trees!
Soaring toward the heavens,
strong and, with such ease.
Coconut! O coconut! O I love your trees!
Legends, myths, and folklore,
what some foresee about your trees!
But, coconut! O coconut! I want your tree to thrive!
Because, if I could have just one,
I’d need yours to survive!

This is a delight to read Vicki! I love the repetition and message that flows from it. I love their trees to. This could be a sweet song.
