(Heavens, how I blathered!);

With an ardour undismayed and treacly

I proposed (without success) bi-weekly.

Now, my dear, it's up to you

To become the hero;

Show us how a man should woo

When he wills to win, and do

Teach us how to bill and coo

With our hopes at zero.

Chloe, for a change (it may amuse you),
