Love Nuts

When coco de mer trees were found Their nuts had most people enthralled They all thought they looked erotic So "Love Nuts" is what they were called Still unknown how they reproduce Explained in some of the wild tales On stormy nights, the female trees Are approached by uprooted males! Viewing this mating process though Would cause you to die or go blind Seek not shelter under male trees They might come at you from behind!
