Due to misunderstanding

I idiotically left Sapphire

On a remote railway platform 

As we were travelling south 

Towards the Caravan Argosee

Which we had jointly owned 

For the previous five summers 

The caravan had once been used 

By the hippy artist Alain

And when he emigrated to the USA

He left some of his better works 

So that we might fund our freedom 

Which at present is not as free

As I might have liked it to be 

Sapphire's train arrives in an hour 

And I have booked a harbour table

At the Le Chat Vert to apologise
