Taxfree Scheme

There once was a gullible taxman
Who dated a rich lady named Ann
When the taxes were due
She declared I love you
Why don't we take a trip to Milan

The authorities will catch up sooner or later. Love the possibilities of this one. they got side tracked to Rome where they tried to set up a home It didn't last long what they did was wrong and the authorities wouldn't leave them alone

Thanks but I missed the contest. My muse was slow as molasses in winter for this one... the subject of money and taxes does that to me. LOL
