Cancelled Check

I issued a rendezvous raincheck recently
A hefty promissory note
For a thousand kisses and a hundred tender hugs
But now that check will float

Reminded of it just today
I'll admit I was taken aback
For when I issued it funds were there
My accounting has gotten off track

I love the way my brand new bank
Pays dividends on the spot
My small investments multiply
So quickly, bonds are hot

Depositing little every day
Soon begins to grow
Investments vouchsafed in her heart
Are safe as houses, I know

I paid the fee to stop payment on that other note today today
