Five Papayas and a Basket

Five papayas and a basket Are brought by Granda Mel; The sweet fruits are given To her five friends very well. The first fruit is handed to Raquel, A good poetess from Lebanon; Her heart is filled with joy, Due to kindness of Grandma Mel Pilon. Brother Jun and Brother Clauds Hold their respective papayas; Their eyes smile and sparkle, Because Grandma is not biased. The fourth fruit is gladly received By the writer and singer Gigi; She happily hugs Grandma Mel, Because of her generosity. The basket and the fifth fruit Are for Bernard to get; For he is the last to take one Of five papayas and a basket.
