The second of my collections of poems written for "Express It In Eight."
As usual these days, I choose blog format because it offers more space for the work.

Avocado

The avo is a funny fruit,
no sweet or juicy flesh to loot,
and tough its skin so hard to bare -
oh mighty alligator pear!

Instead it offers oily prize,
more tasty than you would surmise
and, given salt and pepper pure,
it’ll satisfy you, that’s for sure.


Line count: 8
Rhymed couplets
For Express It In Eight, 11.15.24
Prompt: Write a poem about your favourite fruit.
