A little Persian date!

A Little Persian Date...

All the wait is over,
So is the debate.

All those ‘will its’ won’t its’
Rushing through my head.

You could call it fortune,
Just perhaps pure fate.

For I have managed to charm
A little Persian date!

My heart is beating, beating.
Waiting for the fete!

But something rather tells me,
Despite the willing bait...

I won’t put
In my lifetime,
Its precious fruit...

On a plate!
