Chocolate Is My Fruit of Choice

written for the rhyming poem challenge, March 26th, 2005

Bananas, apples, peaches, pears,
Just looking at fruit brings me to tears,

What do you mean ‘Five Servings a Day’?
I look at them and think, “No way!”

Chocolate is my fruit of the day,
It grew on a tree a long way away,

It’s good for me, or so I’ve been told,
And over me it has a great hold.

So five times a day chocolate I’ll eat,
For chocolate is my fruity treat.
