Fruit Salad (this one is funny)
And I wrote this one when I was eleven and I think it's hilarious... I can't read through it without giggling.
I think it was a homework assignment, from memory the first verse is actually written by someone else and we had to finish the story, I should look into it and find out! ;)
Sitting in a fruit bowl, an apple and a plum,
Decided ti get married, and they had to tell her mum.
But when they plucked up courage, her mother had a fit,
Her father said, ?She?s much too young, I think you?d better split?.
The apple was upset, and the plum very sad,
Plum?s parents had been mean, and that had made them mad.
They ran away together, to a humble home land,
Decided to get married on a beach, in the sand.
They invited many visitors. from their past unhappy life,
Plum?s parents found out, and killed apple with a knife.
Plum cried and cried for days on end, she was left all alone,
Now desperate for a child, a child of her own.
Plum, she took up drinking, until she mate a mate,
She met him at the bar, and declared that a date.
Plum?s boyfriend was a banana, a banana named Fred,
In May they eloped, had kid Ban-ums; Sally, Jean and Jed.
The kids they started school with a fabulous teacher,
Plum learnt to cook the kids? favourite food pizza.
They continued on a happy life, making many friends.
But that?s a different story, this is The End!
