Basket of Fruits

Behold the red ripening apple!

Once thought a forbidden fruit.

An idea that is difficult to grapple,

And may give your senses a boot.

Think upon the odd shaped Pear!

It may not be the one you pick.

Skin so soft with bruises bare,

Resembling candle with brown wick

The purple pulp of the Grape!

A social fruit growing in a bunch.

Lovely fruit to arrange and drape,

And a juicy bite to have for lunch.

Basket of Fruits to share with all,

Basket of Fruits most colorful of all
