A poem for the little ones to see,
With tasty treats that they'll love, you'll agree,
From the pear to the grape and the cherry so red,
With their lunch boxes, they'll be well fed!

A pineapple sweet and a banana bright,
Will give them the energy they need to take flight,
A tomato to crunch and an apple to bite,
Their taste buds will dance with delight!

So pack up their lunch box with love, take care,
And send them off to school with a sweet and healthy fare,
For a well-fed body and a happy mind,
Is what they'll need to be kind.

So, here's to the little ones, let's cheer,
With a poem about fruit that's sure to bring cheer!
