Greatest Day Remembered

I asked her to marry me with a poem
I formed the words out of love, with passion
I had written it with awesome rhythm
I asked her to marry me with a poem
I know we're not on the bottom totem
I held her tight, gave her some compassion
I asked her to marry me with a poem
I formed the words out of love, with passion

Ways differ and vary when it comes to proposals.... Managing this in a Poem is surely a bright way for a poet to charge his proposal with enigmatic words! Lovely write, Russell!
