An old friend telephoned today
Proposing that we meet:
'It's been too long since last we joined;
'A meeting would be sweet.'
And so I entered into his joy:
'By all means, let's get together! '
But then his scheme took on new light.
'Your place? ' he said. 'It's better.'
And then: 'Your wife prepare the meal?
'What time is best to come?
'I'll not stay late, give you time to clean.
'My, won't this be fun? '
'I'm glad I had this great idea, '
He said. 'We're quite the team.
'But next time maybe you'll do more;
'I thought of everything.'
