Topic: Birthday of Rheen Besa (April 9)
Form: Acrostic Tetractys
Oh dear what can the matter be
It's Rheen the queen needing to wee
How can I just sit with my knickers down
don't think I will be able to balance my crown.
How can a queen pee behind a tree,
With royal butt on show for all to see.
A policeman would run me in
weeing in public is a sin.
But do hurry home the pain is stronger,
am desperate......can't wait much longer.
In future when am out needing the loo
will try and not cause such a hullabaloo
