Garden Guessing
For green pair,
Was forbidden fruit
A green pear?
———–
An apple?
Looked good to the eye –
All shiny.
———-
Or a grape
The fox could not reach,
But they did?
———-
Banana?
Because of the peel,
They slipped, fell?
———-
A cherry?
And ever since, it’s
Been the pits.

* The haiku I write are lines of 3-5-3 syllables instead of 5-7-5.

Love it! 😀
Thanks!
Sine qua non a taste for sweets, whatever the color…
Preferably chocolate colored sweets! 🙂
That’ll do…
