Pears
By Eden Hicks

Pears, oh, pears, little green fruits with little green hairs.

They taste like an apple only sour, they go so brown in just one hour.

Pears are one of my least favourite fruits, they look like apples in little green suits.

Though, once there was a possum, in our yard, we fed him a pear and he fell down hard.

R.I.P little possum, I’m sorry you died, but those mean pears are the reason I cried.
