History In the Making

Do you remember, dear, we were young It was dusk and we’d gone horseback riding Stopped to sip riesling wine Nibble grapes and cheese With much passion you unfurled your intentions Detailed how you saw the future together Getting married, building a house And then maybe children to call our own You asked me to consider it I said there was nothing to think about So it was that with a kiss we sealed the deal There was no greater honour in my heart And on the outside I know I glowed For we both knew we were creating history AP: 3rd place 2022 Submitted on March 3, 2018 for contest EIGHT-WORD CHALLENGE sponsored by ROBERT HAIGH - RANKED 9TH
