Meal For Four

Gathering in the restaurant and the essence so bliss A table of privacy is something we can all miss Only table left was a table to fit four Being alone at meal times was something today no more Dr Mehta sat next to me as I admired his style Carol Brown then entered with her big beautiful, red happy smile Five minutes later Robert Haigh confidently swaggered in to appear Complete strangers in company is something we all can fear Never judge a situation as plans never actually work Table of four; Dr Mehta, Carol Brown, Robert Haigh and me, Claire Burke Carol and Robert had a laugh but competively did disagree Dr Mehta had the pure delight of a chair seated next to me Changeling of glasses and we managed to get Robert very drunk Dr Mehta told us about his idea to convert perhaps as a monk Carol wanted to get Dr Mehta to drink a little brandy When Carol started dancing she made the waiters bothered and randy Dr Mehta would not drink so Robert drank for two Soon ended up passed out as we gave him more than a few The waiters begged Carol for her phone number and possibilities of a date Maybe this predicament was intended for her unexpected love fate Dr Mehta finished his drink and casually carried on home Carol and I took Robert to his place and left him to be alone Carol is clever as well as pretty and always seems a person who is right Marvellous people of company and a very unique memorial night Claire Burke Dr Ram Mehta Carol Brown Robert Haigh

You've described every person much as I imagine them to be. You caught me a bit off-guard with Robert drinking for two, though. lol. May your dream realize of meeting up with the fellow poets you have mentioned. Good luck in the contest with this well-written piece. :-)
