There was a young lady named 'bella
Whose brothers murdered her fella
Lorenzo was dead
So she buried his head
To grow basil - Whatta da hella!

^ Isabella, or the Pot of Basil (1818) is a narrative poem by John Keats adapted from a story in Boccaccio's Decameron (IV, 5). It tells the tale of a young woman whose family intend to marry her to "some high noble and his olive trees", but who falls for Lorenzo, one of her brothers' employees. When the brothers learn of this, they murder Lorenzo and bury his body. His ghost informs Isabella in a dream. She exhumes the body and buries the head in a pot of basil which she tends obsessively, while pining away.

No wonder my basil looks puny.
I know what to do next year.

Isabellas are always involved in such shenanigans.
It goes with the name.

No rain on the horizon.
