The Proposal

"The Proposal" by: Eric L. Boddie I remember the first time I looked into your eyes I remember the first time we ordered extra large fries I remember the first time we woke up together I remember the aroma of your hair when you come in from the weather I remember your middle name and how it sounds so unique I remember how you sound if you chew gum while you speak I remember the very day that I first tasted your precious kiss I remember that I have never felt about another girl quite like this I remember how you laugh when you hear me tell a joke I remember that you Loved me, even in the times that I was broke I remember how you look if I come in too late I remember what you wore on our very first date I remember your expression when they play our special song I remember how you sound when I touch you with my tongue I remember the first time I surprised you at your job and took you to lunch I remember the sweet sound of your voice saying "I Love you" more than once I remember calling you when it's just starting to get dark I remember holding your hand as we walk through the park I remember how you look when you comb your hair and what you like to eat I remember the favorite pair of shoes you like on your feet I remember the ones you chose the first time we exchanged words I remember the sound of your voice being the most Beautiful thing I have ever heard I remember the very thing that made me want us to be together I remember how much I Love you girl......will you be mine forever

Paying attention! It's the little things. It's the practice of love and forgiveness. Love it, Eric!

O' I really enjoyed this -esp. the unobvious things you mentioned. I noticed I skipped all but the first"I remember"s and just went straight to the memories.
