Fresh Oranges

Today I picked an orange
Fresh from the orange tree
It's been such a long time 
Since I've done this you see
Dad's brain aneurism occurred
Way back in 1993 at Kingston-on-Murray
The fruit block was sold off
That was back in 1994: at a loss
Dad was in no condition: obviously
To do any of the work: no siree
It took a very long time
For him to recover: still can't see properly
The pressure on his optic nerve
Did damage: left a massive black hole
We are all just so thankful
That he is with us still!
