I Am A Banana

Going bananas for bananas!!!

By Rick Henry Christopher Published 3 years ago 1 min read

This poem is a Vocal + Assist Facebook community challenge…

I am a banana

And I'm wearing plaid pajamas

Coasting through Havana

Rockin' the cabana

Got my green bandana

Waiting for Diana

Leaving Louisiana

On our way to Indiana

It's just Americana

Remember what I say I am a banana

Slippers and pajamas

Dancing in Havana

Dress in the cabana

Wear the snazziest bandana

Listen to Diana

Singin' in Louisiana

Pitstop Indiana

Celebrate Americana

But remember one more time… that I am a banana that is wearing plaid pajamas
