Fineapple<\/h1>\n

by Amy Ho<\/p>\n

If you were a fruit,
\nYou\u2019d be a Fineapple.
\nYou make the others all Uglyfruit,
\nActing like Bittermelon.<\/p>\n

You are my Starfruit.<\/p>\n

You\u2019re perfectly ripe for picking,
\nSweet enough to eat whole.
\nOh Boysenberry,
\nAre you sure we Cantaloupe.<\/p>\n

You are my Miracleberry.<\/p>\n

Or maybe you are a Chestnut.
\nI love both parts on you.
\nIt makes me Coconuts
\nTo PawPaw You.<\/p>\n

You are my Passionfruit.<\/p>\n

Oh Honeydew(me).
\nI just want to make you Kumquat.
\nWhen you Honeysuckle my Cherry,
\nIt makes me scream…<\/p>\n
