Bananas good:
Shaped like an evening crescent moon
A tasty fruit sealed in a yellow cocoon
A gift from the tropics that is hard to beat
Each bite is squishy and heavenly sweet
Plantains bad:
They are often mistaken for little bananas
They’re slimy green from African savannas
Best that one should never unpeel and bite
Uncooked they can bring digestive fright
Bananas good:
They are creamy and are a tasty delight
One may enjoy them in morning or night
Packed with potassium, a healthy friend
Brings pleasure from first bite to the end
Plantains bad:
They are hard to digest, bring a gaseous plight
Bellies can be very upset, through day and night
Acidy sensation in the throat it also can bring
Such burning sensation is an unpleasant thing
Remember folks:
When you're shopping in your grocery store's fruit aisle
Plantains can’t be trusted, they are slime green and vile
Bananas are the best fruit ever, each bite will bring a smile
