Fruit mix

 

I see cherries

and an apple,

a plum, a pear,

a mandarin.

 

Do you also find

that the strawberry

amid the other fruit

is a Quinn?

 

The lemon,

you can’t eat it like that.

Bananas? Yes you can,

as the piece of melon.

 

We add some yoghurt

or some ice.

I am sure,

that will be very nice.

 

But …, the apple

we’d better forget

because half of it,

a worm has had.
