Let’s Go Bananas! arlene s bice
bananas are a versatile fruit
great for eating that’s true
full of potassium, healthy
easy to grab one
slip it into your tote
to take on your route
wherever you’re going
why is it the butt of a joke
does anybody know
it is elongated, slender
greenish turns to yellow
as ripened, not a funny color
easy to peel, give it a poke
slice it or dice it, eat it whole
let’s go bananas some do say
meaning to let loose
let your hair down
let it all hang out
whatever is good for you
at night or during the day
just do it, eat bananas!
