The sweetest fruit

Nana Lindy always said
That dad's oranges were
The sweetest she ever had
The smaller the better
The sweeter the taste
It must have been because
The trees got so much
Lovely sunshine in Kingston
Yes they got the best weather
On those peaceful slopes
Growing sweet along the River
Right there in the middle
Of the River lands: at our  block
In the driest state of the driest
Continent: Australia! Home!
