The Strawberry

I'm a strawberry as plump as can be
I come from florida weathers and grow in a tree
I'm going to colder states up in the north
but I really enjoy Florida's sweet warmth
If I were not me I would become a house
and comfort a whole family as snug as a mouse
others think I'm a top, but I'm simply a berry
a simple strawberry
Inside of me I'm only juice but I feel more than that
I feel more than a simple old splat
I want a home and someone to love me
and I'll love them like a mommy and baby
and maybe just maybe they will love me too.
