Creative writing group – shops

This week’s theme was a trip to the greengrocers. We picked a fruit or vegetable to write about. I chose a kiwi fruit 🥝

Ode to a kiwi fruit 

Oh kiwi oh kiwi oh yes yes, mais oui. OUI! 

You’re green and you’re hairy, you look pretty scary 

Oh please let me in beneath your brown skin 

Exotic. Erotic? Delicious. Nutritious.

More vitamin C than there’s salt in the sea

You’re sweet and you’re soft, I hold you aloft 

I feel you. I peel you. I slice and I cut

I gobble you down cos you’re good for my gut.

Beguiling
