The Fruity Men

THE FRUITY MEN ???????????????????????????? In shades of ebony, they stand tall Like Greek gods, muscular and all Their skin like midnight, rich and divine With strength that rivals the sweetest vine, Chests like melons, grapes firm & round Their laughter like cherries delightful sound.6 With arms like veges & branches, reaching high They are as succulent as a ripe supply Their abs and biceps like oranges & grapes, Even nature isn't in tune with their names. And just like fruits so sweet and kind, They possess a magnetic, vibrant mind,¹² Nature's bounty and a sight to behold. They are ripe, confident, and bold This Eden land inhabits the fruity men, Apples, aplenty, ripen in the glen,¹6 The orange sun with lemon rays, Shines shimmeringly on mother earth's face, Bouncing banana bending in golden haze. Pretty pineapples dance in the summer heat, Many mangoes sway to the tropical beat,²¹ Plush papayas blush & gush with rosy hue, Gargantuan guava whispers secrets too.²³ In this orchard of the fruity men, Their sight definitely compels your amen As nature’s bounty knows no end, A symphony of colors and flavors blend In this paradise, where the fruits transcend.²8 VICK MANUEL POETRY {VMP} FORM: Rhymes Copyright ©?January 2024.
