I worry about you in that flat by yourself
maybe I should come round
bring Snakes on a Plane and a takeaway.
Maybe I should stay all day
make a picnic for your balcony
and I'll bring my lawnmower
I know you said you had no garden tools.
Maybe I should stay overnight
bring a sleeping bag for the sofa
that way we've got much more time
we could drive to Ikea on Sunday morning.
Maybe I should move in
bring over my stuff bit by bit
I don't have much but there's a few patio chairs
and a George Foreman grill
and I will put out the bins and cut the grass
and not mind when you smoke
and over the years we can get hedge trimmers
a brick barbecue
secateurs
a bird table.

You can come and mow my lawn, if you like, but you can't move in!
Wonderfully lovely,
