Candle light diner
I’m simply not a painter,
Ore any artist for that matter.
I know but one art, the art of preparing food.
I can’t write songs, ore paint a beautiful painting.
So I will spend a day in the kitchen,
Will use my pots and pannes,
I will make you a portret of food,
I will sculp a sculpture like no artist can.
I will light some candles an dimm the lights,
I will serve the first course,
I hope you find as beautiful as a Monet
I hope you will marvel at first sight.
I will serve us another drink,
I will serve the second course,
I hope you find it as beautiful as Beethoven’s ninth symphony,
I hope you will marvel at first taste.
I will clear the table,
Prepare for the third and final course,
Serve a simple chocolate pudding with some whipped cream,
This is my painting, this is my symphony, this is all I can do,
All I can hope, that you find it as beautiful as I find you.
