Tulips and Marigold Gun Battle

The tulips and the marigolds were in a gun battle today.
Queen of Tulips was mad for her latest slave Charlie had run away.
She started the battle with hatchets, battle axes, and hammers too.
Queen of Marigolds ended it with assault rifles, painted periwinkle blue.

Caren, I love a decisive victory. Those tulips had it coming to them. Just remember, don't mess with the South side Bougainvilleas. -Richard
