Banana Leaf
YO, Vinny!They're EVERYWHERE!
"You don't want your credibility banana to turn brown, but you do want to speak out about what you believe in."
Bradley Whitford
"You have to have a certain persona to be a star, you know, and I don't have that. I'm a banana."
"By three methods we may learn wisdom: First, by reflection, which is noblest; Second, by imitation, which is easiest; and third by experience, which is the bitterest."
Clever Bananas, the portable fruit!
I've tried everything to keep them fresh
when all the time they were ready to go:
simply separate them
and they know that it is time to be portable,
they keep fresh and go along.
Such a companionable fruit!
The bunch of five
like a vegetal hand
reaching out
across the species barrier
as if to shake hands
(That's what they're called:
a "Hand of Bananas"
at least that's what I call them.)
Yo, Yellow!
Time to come along on a little
walk-about.
Apple bananas, growing in da yard,
sweet and custard-y
not store-bought and hard!
So here's to a noble curved companion
No! not THAT one!
the lowly banana
whose "tree" is really a giant grass.
Tomorrow's post:
"I've got a loverly bunch a coconuts!"
