There once was a fish named Gramma,
Who lived in a reef so sublime-a,
With a royal purple hue,
And a bright yellow too,
This Basslet was quite the prima donna.
Gramma Loreto is her full name,
She's not easily caught in a game,
She's a peaceful fish,
But she won't take any fishy diss,
In her own territory, she reigns.
It's her unique coloration,
That makes her a favored sensation,
Her vibrant colors glow,
In the reef's warm glow,
That's why she's top of the nation.
So if you see Gramma on your dive,
Know that she's a fish that's alive,
In the coral she'll hide,
But she'll never abdicate her pride,
For she's the Queen of Basslet thrive.
