Up to 65 feet it grows.
A flowering plant with berry fruit,
But there’s one 6 foot flower I know.
Berry good. That’s the word from Cricket, who is such a delightful hoot.

In the tropics he does really well, and he’ll gladly tell of the growth that comes within.
Free from sin, for He let Christ Jesus come in.
Avocado is free to bloom for Him.

Av –o – cado –
Planted in the warmth of God’s dear Son,
Basking also in the heat of his own hon.
Oh, how wonderful,
Is everything God’s done.

And you can see it, peering beneath each life task,
answering what our Lord Himself does ask.
Seeking, toiling in ardent prayer.
The harvest will be very glad he’s there.

Thank you, Lord, for Cricket’s guy.
No one had better ever try
To soil the path God has laid on high.
Never late, even if nudged by his mate.
Like Dennis, avocados make this world great.
