Dear love, I would like to put an 18-Carrot on your finger

Your unkindness makes me melon-choly (watermelon)

Your hair is a little radish sweetheart (maybe a take on the word reddish? - or back in the day, women used foam 'rats' to make their hair look fuller - so if your hair looked rattish - it looked full?? - OK, I might be reaching a bit far on this one)

Let me twine- Orange blossoms 'round your head. (Orange Blossom flower stands for: Innocence, Eternal Love, Marriage, Fruitfulness)
