Her father drank black bitter coffee
Her mother sipped earl
grey tea
As I stood before her
parents
I was full of fear and
anxiety
It was a very daunting
experience
And it was not at all
as I planned
I was there for a
noble purpose
To ask for their daughter’s
hand
As the object of my
attentions
Sat demurely drinking
her juice
Her father started
choking
And mother turned
strangely puce
We left the house hand
in hand
Running head long from
the pair
They had both forbad
consent
But the lovers really
didn’t care
So, they went to the
Savoy Hotel
And ordered chilled
Chardonnay
which came in crystal goblets
Carried on a large
silver tray
They sat in luxury
surroundings
Until the bottle was
empty
And their hearts were
full of love
And their future was
full of plenty
