Lemon Tree

I am but a lemon tree
Fruitful all year round
Yellow with invitation
but thorny on the surface

I am but a lemon tree
Leaves full through seasons
Never dull of brown
but hard on bark

I am but a lemon tree
Strong at root
Overcome storm or hail
but stubborn in flourishment

I am a lemon tree
You may feed off me
Hate my taste
Need my bite
but...please water me.
