Dragon Fruit

Amidst the cacti's prickly lair,

It thrives with secrets, rich and rare,

Advantages bloom in every bite,

A strong of health and light.

*

First, taste its flesh, a vibrant white,

A succulent treat, a pure delight,

With seeds like speckles, black as night,

A burst of flavor, sweet and slight.

**

Its armor tough, a fibrous wall,

Yet tender to our heart's own call,

Digestive hero, it aligns,

Bringing balance to our vital signs.

***

Antioxidants, warriors bold,

Defend our cells from growing old,

Cholesterol tamed, and pressure, low,

You guard our hearts, a crimson glow.

****

For skin, a beauty ally you stand,

With Vitamin C, you lend a hand,

You cleanse and heal, our blemishes mend,

A radiant glow, you gently send.

*****

And in your realm of vivid hue,

A gift for all, a health debut,

An eco-friendly, sustainable friend,

From arid lands, a blessing to send.
