The Pear,
Armed with scissors
And glue
Settled down to
His task
The Apples,
Glared disapprovingly
Coxes have no time
For arts
And crafts
The Bananas,
Thought the whole
Affair was beneath them
They thought
Too much
The Kiwis,
Were green with envy
At such freedoms
Desire, bursting
Through brown coats
The Grapes,
Clung to each other
Fearful, by nature
At the concept
Of life beyond
The Fruit-bowl
