Here’s things that you might not have heard
That make bananas seem absurd
I’ll try to keep it nice and brisk...
Research more at your own risk
They’re clones, which sounds a tad dramatic
And might one day be problematic
The trees are herbs. The fruit’s a berry.
Are you confused? I am, very!
They’re radioactive too, it’s true
But don’t freak out... ‘cause so are you

Inspired by a writing prompt in the vocal + assist Facebook group. Also inspired by things I read after performing google searches that weren’t even about bananas... I am now scared to google bananas.

I am smiling on the inside out. This was great. An excellent poem all the way around. And best of all has a hint of humor that goes a long way. Great job! I love it!
