A Little Something
Kicking stones along gravel paths
A quiet forest walk
Alone with just my honey
Out loud to her I talk
She can't be physically with me
Though how I do wish that she could
And I think that she'd also want to be here
But there's that difference between wanting and should
What do I say to her out there
Alone among flowers and trees?
That's easy, I tell her I love her
And ask for her hand on one knee
With animals standing as witness
I walk with her holding my arm
Approaching a trellis of lilacs
The scene one of romance and charm
Together now, off to the banquet
A picnic set up by a lake
It's just her and I at the party
No fanfare, no speeches to make
I hear something off in the distance
A familiar musical theme
I open my eyes to my bedroom
And yearn to go back in that dream
