Mikey the Mango Muncher

Mikey is a mango muncher,
He just loves that yellow fruit,
It is orange on the outside
With fragrant aroma that's so beaut.

Once he takes that skin off
His taste buds do a loop-de-loop,
Munching all that yellow flesh,
It really is his favourite fruit.

Now the juice is running everywhere,
What a mess he's in,
It's dripping down both his cheeks 
Just near Mikey's yellow grin.

Had a flat mate in Brisbane once, his Mum dropped off a few boxes of unripe mangoes from home. He excitedly, studiously, gently, wrapped them individually in news paper to ripen, and put them in the cupboards. I went away on a 3 or so week holiday. When I got back I asked how good they had been. He'd forgotten :) A real mango muncher was he.
