The Perfect Proposal

A perfect proposal
a walk the beach,
two lover's engaged in forever's kiss.
This is the day she had been longing for
ever since they fell in love.
A simple question, written in the sand
by the hand that she would soon take in hers.
His eyes met her and searched for an answer,
an answer that he'd been longing to hear
since he told her "I love you".
As tears of happiness filled her eyes
and gently fell to the sand beneath her feet,
an anticipated answer of "YES"
was followed by a kiss. A kiss that would be forever etched 
in the setting sun on this perfect proposal.
