Here is to my orange
Orangey orange and oh so real
But woe you are schizophrenic
I know this as you I peel
Each segment a different personality
An emotion for every day
One segment that is always happy
One that is sad no matter what you say
One segment doesn’t get much sleep
So it is always very grumpy
One segment is very angry
For it sits next to one that thinks its three
One segment that will always laugh
At the small one that gets a little mad
Here is to my schizophrenic orange
The best fruit I ever had

Marvellous...!!!
This is simply so beautiful! Who on earth would even think of an orange with schizophrenia? But you did, and that's why...hats off to you! The mental disorder idea was really good, so in a way, at times, mental disorders are maybe not all that bad if you're showcasing cheerful poetry, wotsay? Even this page reminds us of juicy, plump and fresh oranges with a typical 'orangey' smell. Everything here is so orange, and it feels so good! Thanks for the cheerful poem
Good luck and God bless
