Once a lady sat there
and spread her skirts about,
wearing a widebrimmed hat
and flirting with gentlemen.
One came she didn't flirt with.
They had serious talks,
each in their own chair
and he asked the lady for her hand.
Why did she say "no"
wonders the chair.
She said "no" and went away
and did not sit there again.
