Fruit

personalities are like fruits
some work together
some clash
varying and unpredictable

pineapples
are hard on the outside
sweet nice refreshing on the inside
too much and it can be too acidic, too harsh 

durians are by preference
loved by some, hated by many

honeydew, a breath of fresh air
brings laughter to every conversation
always sweet, always nice

banana, soft and delicate
the slightest touch and it’s bruised

pomegranate
takes hard work to gain trust
rewarding and satisfying in the end

an apple a day keeps the doctor away
basic 
loved but boring 

cherries, a classic
sweet, sometimes sour

and in the end
everyone has the potential 
to become a Popsicle
