Written - 4th December 2023

Once upon a white winter wonderland my love and I were walking hand in hand beneath a gleaming moonlit starry sky with a flurry of snowflakes swirling by. Suddenly there came an angelic sound from a most welcoming church we had found as we stepped inside, in joy our hearts leapt a magic moment we’d never forget. It was a soulful yuletide sonata I wished to join in sacred cantata my sweetheart got down on knee and proposed I said "yes" and tears of happiness flowed. Who'd imagine melody such as this would lead to a lifetime of wedded bliss yet it did and we're so appreciative of the church and the divine organist. God’s presence aroused in glorious sound a Christmas sonata heavenward bound.

what a wonderfully romantic sonata. Sounds like such a magical moment the way he proposed...as if God himself had lent a hand. My husband, too, proposed during the Christmas season. Got down on his knees in a retail store and proposed in front of all those shoppers. Immediately after, snow--magical snow began falling...I knew we were destined to be together and still together after 40 years. Thanks for sharing your poem, hugs, Sara
