Best Bananas Poems


Going Bananas
Feeling lethargic,
Sue went on 
a banana diet,
and started to feel
more energetic and alive,
walking past the 
local playground,
she was going
to keep walking,
when she quickly
changed her mind...
Swinging round and round,
flipping upside down,
she couldn't believe
the bananas gave her
so much stamina,
one last go round,
she dismounted
landing perfectly
on the ground,
just like...

Bananas
They say we evolved from apes,
  but an ape would never destroy its own environment;
  or be unwilling to share ---
  having an endless amount of anything,
  or have itself as its own worst enemy ---

Is this what they call standing...

Bananas

Here come the sailors of the Seventh Fleet
With their bananas ripe, ready to eat
The ladies, they like them firm
Musty one’s make them squirm
Why can’t liberty always be so sweet!

Limes

They’re green and round not yellow and curvy
Bruised or mushed never—topsy turvy!
Peeled back skin often slimy
Best citrus...

Premium Member - Bahamas and Bananas -
In wait for spring, snow is falling
Escape to the idyllic islands of Bahamas

Create your own adventure, the palette is ready
Framed by a gorgeous, mesmerizing blue sea

Eating a banana can lighten your mood
Soft and lovely coral sand, a pink sunset

Get away from the cold and explore...

Green Bananas
A time is reached in life if one remains
Alive to tell the tale: those certain things
He once performed routinely, ascertains
The notion, habits must desist which brings
About awareness: His mortality.
Employment ends; Retirement is here.
The monthly saving wanes. Frugality
submits to lavish tastes. The thirty year
Installment loan is...

I got myself a suntanna.
Down at the local beach.
While watching three Santas.
In the Christmas Parade.
It was a nice Sun-shiny day.
In Southern Cal.Near LA..
But the only thing I wanted? 
Was a beautiful gal! 
While going bananas! 
Get It? 
Sun-Tanna! 
While I witness three Santas..
Giving Christmas gifts.
Around...

Why Bananas Help You Sleep
Bananas are
As a rule
Fun to have around
All yellow and soft
And curvy
So delicious when they're peeled

They'll ride around with you
All day wherever you go
As a rule
Without complaining
Apart from the odd occasion
When the journey's been a little long
They’ll hint with their own particular perfume


At the end of...

He Go Bananas
I found monkey behind the bush throwing up
He must have had one too many bananas
He ended up scaring the raccoon out of me
As i shivered i must have had too much wine
Being not much inclined to strong stuff...
I curled in bed as angels swam in...

Bruisin' Bananas
Bananas be bruisin'
And I dunno why.
Bananas be bruisin'
They be covered in flies

Bananas used to be pretty cool,
They used to be yellow and stuff.
Bananas used to be pretty cool,
Now they just shriveled, the peel 
Rough

They brown, they yucky,
They ain't yellow like a ducky.
They sticky, they black,
Like...

On the banana I shall e'er expound

   I can consume bananas by the pound

      When on a huge eating spree

         My spouse quickly reminds me

Hmmmmmmm~ Thought Tea ??
Does this blend require lemon a'plenty?
Or shall it find lime more then amenable?
Shall such cup as is drunk from thus be dainty?
Or should we drink from whichever we find tenable?

Rotten Bananas
They wandered through town, 
tan-skinned misfits hungry to get out 
of the cold embrace of the house,
searching for sunlight in all the 
wrong places. They strolled through 
the toughened streets of East 
Dallas, with their mongrel appearance 
and the half kind of luck that only...
