Fruity Sonnet
"If I had lemon colored hair,"
Louise said shyly,
"And a body like a pear--
Would you esteem me highly?"
"Or laugh at a girl shaped like a cherry?"
She put her hands to her waist,
Opened her mouth like a berry,
And then began to pace.
"It would be better were I a plum,"
Louise next concluded,
"And spoke with purple thumbs.
A language unrefuted!"
Louise eyed her own reflection.
"Such a fruit basket complexion."
