Please excuse my nakedness
said the banana to the crowd.
I didn’t know that stripping down
was simply not allowed.
That yucky yellow skin
was so uncomfortable to wear
I really wish that none of you
would stop to look and stare.
What can I do to cover up?
This is just like a bad dream
You know the one where everyone
can see but you can't scream?
Hey you right there with caramel sauce,
Could I just take a dip?
I’ll dive right in and cover up
or maybe do a flip
Hmmm.. that feels nice it’s warm in here
Would you all like to join?
This caramel sauce will work just fine
to cover up my groin
Hey wait a sec, Do not do that
-I don’t like to be bitten!
Ok, that’s it , I’m outta here
-Now this banana’s splittin!

This was a quick write. The meter is not as precise as I would like, but hey I'm at work and this just seemed like such a cute, fun contest I had to take time to enter

Appealing
I agree the meter's a bit rough. However, it's cute with word play.

The best part was watching the banana speaking all of this to me as I read it
In my imagination of course.
Very entertaining write and sheer good fun. I am glad I read your author notes too. I won't bother pointing anything out.... it is utterly enjoyable as it is anyway.
