Freeze I live in a subtropical clime, where exotic plants can grow, flourish, with care in due time.
Some like bananas and papaya,
Native plants can handle a freeze,
Oranges, lemon and lime,
Change in climate has made it clear,
Our tropical jungle no longer to appear,
If only these occasional freezes,
What a wonderful thought,
