a strawberry pachinko ball bounces like a blueberry. banana flavored cover-alls are bad to wear by monkeys. apple jelly handcuffs keep a criminal trapped and healthy, cheese-wigs are a bad idea if mice live in your belfry.

Cute. Maybe a stretch for rhyme though, my friend.
line 6 is out of synch... could omit 'trapped and'.
Cheese wigs is not a familiar term to me, so am supposing it is a bug??

A strawberry bounces like a blueberry? That seems kind of sloppy.

"bad to wear by monkeys" needs rephrasing. Otherwise, good.
