My pear
MY PEAR
My pear is the best ,
far better than the rest,
it did not fall from a shelf,
this pear, I grew myself.
So very ripe, it's juice pops right out.
So sweet, is what its all about.
A brown beauty, my favorite kind.
The juice runs down my face, but I don't mind.
The green one will give you a tummy ache.
Don't eat those for goodness sake.
Chances are I'll have some to share,
when more fall from the tree over there.
