Apple said to banana 
"B loves avocados more than you".
Avocados signed: "Hmm, apparently not any more.
Now, he loves his lazy bone
And lets it be his boss.

Chilli whispered "I am hot
But not enough to attract him".

Orange said "I am full of Vitamin C.
And wondered where he got the calcium from
To feed his lazy bone,
Which made him grow so much and so tall.

Grapes said "Sour grapes"

Mandarin yelled in Chinese
"Mind your own business. 
B has lots of videos to watch
And to work on them."

Plum signed "By the way, 
He will never get plum from fasting,
So make way for the love,
Of his life for the present time"

"Guys, guys, please be quiet, 
Don't you worry, I love you too.
You will get warmer with me,
So leave B alone with his work"

"Who said that?"

It is me. Mala.
