Trust me she could be as gentle as a flower,
Originally the couple were in the mud,
But then water started to flood.
So their perfect bath was gone,
But the scent of lettuce was caught in Chun’s prawn,
And trailed it towards Ru’s camp,
There Gong complained it’s too damp!
And Chun came rushing through,
As Tao followed he knew,
That Ru wanted plums,
As he jiggled his bum.
And munched some dinner,
And spun the leaf to Ru and said he’s the winner,
Instantly Ru was teleported to Li holding plums,
The royal drums rolled as they tuned bass drums,
Li surprised stared at Ru,
Without a clue,
Ru to puzzled held out the plum and ate it,
And Li took a plum and ate it too and felt wonky a bit,
And then black, they were in the abyss,
For now it’s the deadline until Li feels bliss .
