Congratulations To Naomi Osaka François Poem by Hebert Logerie

We're proud of the Haitian-Japanese tennis star
Who just won the Women's Tennis US Open
Naomi is a classy lady, a model, a young Champion
Who has raised very high the golden bar
Countless Haitians, Japanese and Americans
Are very proud of her. Naomi defeated her idol
Superstar Serena Williams that we love too as a model
Who've won more than twenty three Tennis Grand Slams
And several other tournaments. We are very proud
Of these two outstanding champions. The crowd was loud
Very loud when the two great players got their trophies
We're praying for them to win in the future more victories.

P.S. Naomi's mother, Tamaki Osaka is Japanese, and her father, Leonard François is Haitian.
