Romantic

R emember that night we first met,
O ver by the fountain in the square?
M y heart skipped a beat seeing you there.
A lready in love once I caught your smile.
N eath the lamplight, where you had stopped awhile.
T ender and gentle that first kiss.
I knew right then I could not resist.
C upid shot his bow, I'm now Mrs, not Miss.
