bananas, grapes, and strawberries, they all fit us



Grapes

Strawberries

vibrating strings
crunchy things

bananas, grapes, and strawberries,
they all fruitful goods

peel a banana,
eat the white meat, wow

chew a grape
the ball of gum instantly satisfies my tongue

place a strawberry in your mouth
let the red hot blood flow in to sweeten your teeth

besides eating, walking, sleeping,
we read, we write, and we try to rhyme our words
