Singing as the Darkness Lifts

THREE LIES AND ONE TRUTH ABOUT A BANANA after Henry Normal It’s a telephone and someone is ringing for you. It’s a smile. It’s a sad mouth. I do not love bananas, but I do love you. I have included this poem here in case anyone wishes to borrow it for someone they love. I enjoyed writing it for National Poetry Day 2019. The theme was Truth and I wrote it in response to a poem by Henry Normal that was shared in the resource section on the National Poetry Day website.
