Knife arrived, table set
Fork left in the drawer
Waitress counting placements
“One, two, three,…twenty-four.”
Serviette placed near to Knife
Resplendent, pristine, neat
Desert left in chef’s fridge
First course? Three veg and roast beef
Waitress, eyes viewing the room
Beautiful place setting
Chef sparkled, winked at her, so tender
Amatory, like a netting
Arrivals in suit, wearing tie
Chic, in Windsor knot
Arm in arm leading her
To table, dear begot
Knife, pent up anger had
Value poor without Fork
Chop-sticks, one instead of two
Wine bottle without the cork
Hand in glove, foot and mouth
Husband and his wife
Fingers were made before the Fork
Hands before the Knife.
