Maya Angelou, for Kellogg's Fruit Loops:

Toucan Sam, you leap on the back of the wind,
lode stone to assorted fruit flavors,
Phoenix of the dawns, one smile.
We gave you, Toucan Sam, life.
You, Toucan Sam, give us loops of fruit.
Fruity loops, Fruit Loopies,
swimming in the churning, frothy mother sea of milk,
Kellogg's appreciates consumer comments,
P. O. Box 221, Battle Creek, Michigan,
a prism of fruity color, a cornucopia
of over forty fruity tastes.

The orange,the apple,the grape, the pomegranate,

the quince,

the kumquat,

the kiwi,

the plantain,

the guava...
