"You Taste Like Pinapple"

You smile when you see me writing

tenably watching like a child

when I turn my prose into rhyming

I smile back: "this one's about you"

when I kissed you this morning

I suddenly realized you taste just like fruit.

 

Like a Pineapple, of all things considered

sweeter than a whole bunch of grapes

your skirt flaunts your skittles

and your legs take the proverbial cake

Piña Colada to go with my Enchilada

pretty please let me taste the rainbow?

I don't like Pineapple on my burger

on my pizza I don't feel it either

my taste buds become a bitter turbulent river

but I just love it on you,

that little thing that you do

dancing in that lil' grass skirt

make it our own Hawaiian Luau.

 

Your juicy lips

are a 100% from concentrate

like drinking from a can of Dole

blowing me a kiss, giving me a smooch

please drown me in them

a Pineapple falls ways far from an Apple

and SpongeBob lives in one of them.

 

From your eyes to your thighs

I think of way back when

my favorite fruit in the garden

you humbly became

it's been just peachy from there on end.

With the words we shared

as we laid in the hay

your laughter intoxicated my lungs

right down to my pores

and through my veins

and that's a good thing

always a good thing

put your hair up

the mirror loves a silly face

your sly smile for the camera

my photogenic exotic babe.

 

Endangered in this world

you are the only one of your kind

like an extinct Dodo Bird

please stay by my side

and let me one thing in you confide

that the forbidden fruit wasn't an Apple

alas, unknown to Adam

it was a Pineapple.
