We are going to the local market today
To pick up the best groceries for our entrée
Filet mignon salted deliciously and potatoes so ripe
Fulfilling two lovers’ intentions and our dying appetite
We won’t forget the leafy Romaine salad and fresh asparagus
God, I must be in a dream like I’m living in Paris
Remember garlic, lemon pepper, and all those spices
Don’t worry about it being too hot or even the prices
Tonight is the time to mingle for a dazzling romance
Dinner as an art of desire will give a sensual enhance
Dessert, the highlight, is the obscure candy of heaven
Choices made by the best that add up to a total of seven
Dark chocolate, milk chocolate so very creamy, and cherry
White chocolate, caramel so luscious, and coconut so sweet and jelly
Then there are the cinnamon scented candles that dance the room
Roses in dozens of bouquets, which are all in full bloom
Tonight it’s only you and I under a full spontaneous moon
