Herb and Rosemary met in the spice rack
And Herb was instantly smitten
Though pretending to be a little put off
The gal's voice purred like a kitten
Herb wooed her and he courted her
Rosemary's responses were icy
Before too long, he won her heart
Their relationship then became spicy
They made such a handsome couple
Herb had salt and pepper hair
With Rosemary's locks of ginger gold
The two seemed a perfect pair
Rosemary cooked and baked for him
Her cinnamon buns warm and sweet
Herb gave her gifts of peppermint
And allspice with the sugary treat
An article in the Caraway Thymes
Told the world they were engaged
Pap Rika was happy for his little girl
But a chili hot gal was enraged
In the neighboring town of Parsley
Lived a nut of a girl named Meg
She'd been chasing Herb for years
And she swore she'd make him beg
The two lovebirds rented a room
At the Bay Leaf Inn out of town
Nut Meg found out and hatched a plan
To set a trap mint to take Herb down
Rosemary walked in and there they were
In a heated compromising position
Flying into a rage and mincing no words
Dr. Dill was surprised at their condition
Though Rosemary was a little worse for wear
She learned a good lesson that day
When you meet a fella in the kitchen
Don't give him the thyme of day
