Fruit market in Paris, France.

First…
I’d pick
Grapes.
Red, green, gleaming…
Purple pops of pleasure…
They all…
Wait…
What?
Not…
Technically a fruit?
Oh…
Oookay…

Next up…
Kiwis…
Fuzzy, funny little fellows…
Bright green guts…
Perfectly fruity,
Right?
Hold on…
Hold on!
Not a “fruit” fruit?
A berry?
You’ve got to be kidding!

Well, there’s
Bananas…
Bendy, bright, and beckoning…
Long, yellow, and…
Right…
Right…
Here it comes…
Also berries?
Who’s making these rules?
Seriously!

Let’s try
Watermelon…
Summer in a slice…
Sweet, succulent secrets…
Surely, it’s a fruit, right?
Right?
Nope?
Foiled again!
Watermelon?
A berry?
Who’s making these rules?

I was going to say
Raspberries…
But… given my track record…
Surely they’re berries…
Right?
I mean, it’s in the name.
Right?
Ohhhh…
You gotta be kidding me!
I give up!
