I cooked her lunch

Preparing a feast from a great pumpkin beast,
An October day gay Sunday lunch.
Table linen is creased; or it would be at least
If I didn't have just a small hunch
That this girl - can't eat yeast, who lives London north east
And prefers to do sports that go crunch -

Might have a second thought, after our small cavort,
And decided that I'm a poor bet.
Now to that I'd retort that that fun piece of sport,
Whilst too soon 'cos we'd only just met
Allowed sense to get caught in a cradle that's wrought
Out of passion and joy, not regret.

What I'm trying to say, in a roundabout way,
Is that I'd like to see you again.
So if you are ok with a man going grey
But is also a king amongst men
Then our fine feast today may just lead, yes it may,
To the thought not of if, but of when...
