I found a couple of poems that I believe Bob the Tomato would like!
Tutti-Frutti Lovesong,
by Mary Grace Dembeck.
You are my darling CUMQUAT,
Oh, you're my PEACHy pie,
I think you are the BERRIES,
The APPLE of my eye.
Don't make me MELON-choly,
Please be my HONEY DEW,
'Cause oh, my sweet PAPAYA,
I'm BANANAS over you!
I would be oh, so GRAPEful
If you'd just say you care,
For it takes two to MANGO,
And we're a PEACHy PEAR.
Oh, ORANGE you a little
COCONUTS for me too?
Please say you'll be mon CHERRY,
I'm so GUAVA over you.
Or:
Do you carrot all for me?
My heart beets for you,
With your turnip nose,
And your radish nose.
You are a peach,
If we cantaloupe,
Lettuce marry—
Weed make a swell pear.
I was given a small autograph book for Christmas one year as a young person. I became fascinated with autograph verses such as the short one above. Here's a bunch more -- Autograph Book Verses.
Oh, that last! GROAN! Very punny--and funny...
