Nut-Ricious Nutty Poetry

Most people go bananas 
over chocolate
I'm well nuts about nuts 
as well
Stuff them in chocolate
ice-cream or sherbet.

Yeah munch on peanuts
brunch on hazelnuts
Ah lunch on pecan nuts
or crunch on chestnuts

For nuts could never 
drive one nuts
Ironically nutters 
perhaps never ate them
A nutcase perhaps never 
pried open
a nut from its case
as nuts could never ever
fall from grace
Any nut brown eyes 
shouldn't miss them.

Nuts are an anytime 
anywhere snack
Do travel with 'em' in 
your backpack

Savour the taste of 
salted groundnuts or 
roasted peanuts
I even see locals munch 
on round kola nuts.

Western walnuts are 
tasty too
and acorns ain't just for 
squirrels
 in forests or the zoo

Enjoy the crunchy East 
African cashews
Snack on slivered Indian 
almonds
or even Persian 
pistachios

Ahem well rhyming this 
poem
was sure quite a tough 
nut to crack ;)      
Rhyming was tough for 
this nutty crunchy snack

Besides there's so  many 
of them
I can't just put em' all in 
a nutshell
I can only hope and wish 
you enjoy
this nutty tale I tell.

But I do hope to have 
offered all the nuts and 
bolts on nut variety
And now nothing else 
can rhyme here
except its creator the 
Almighty

And this poem be as well 
for all poetry nuts
for don't all of you poets 
have such poetic guts? 

A word in caveat now, 
yeah go on crack those 
nuts
but take care not to 
crack your canines
Pray protect your pearly 
whites
Your very own precious 
stalactites
those right inside your 
facial cave mines
and lest with cavity 
holes you whine.

Great nutty write S.ZK....I go crazy on nuts (after all they're healthy food) and good for cholesterol!! This write reminds me of another poet who displays a similar style of writing - Ivo Casentino. // paul

I must admit Zaynub, I'm my favorite nut, rippled texture, salty crunch, and sweet meat. I have the canines of a Lion so me no worried my friend. There is a brilliant levity to this write. Almonds are awesome! J.A.B.
