Pyramid Schemer

Of Cleopatra it was said

Her loves were so prolific,

Recording all their antics led

To six new hieroglyphics.

Prickly Heat

Image result for thistle

My love is like a red red rose…

One Scottish bard chose to propose.

My ex was like a Yucca plant

And on the yeuch, I’m adamant.
