Apples and Oranges
Species apart are oranges and apples
Yet they're frequently compared
In illogical grapples
The apple believes it's so very incredible
That the peel of the orange
Is so very inedible
The orange knows with out any doubt
Where citrus is king
The apple's left out
Apples have colors, red yellow and green
While the orange is hued only
With an orange-y sheen
Apple sauce is pleasantly tasteful
But sauce from an orange would be
Tastefully wasteful
Apples and oranges should not be compared
But joined in fruit salads
With their flavors well shared
Their fruity comparison leads logic astray
Comparing apples and oranges
Good judgements betray
