Premium Member The Perfect Dream

Last night as I drifted off to sleep
My dream filled my mind with you
A dream so real I had to make a wish
That someday my dream would come true

We were standing by the waters edge
On a beautiful white sandy shore
We were lost in each other's eyes
I was longing as you craved for more

I wrap my arms snugly around you
And I held you there close and tight
As we watch the sun fall in the ocean
And the stars shine on our perfect night

After a while you turned looking at me 
We both leaned in and our lips they met
Loves was tingling its way down my spine
I knew then my future with you was set

I knew that I had to have you forever
From now to the last day of my life
I had no ring but that didn't stop me
I asked you if you would be my wife

Proposal 1

What does it mean to be the next flower to fall after the garden fence is reinforced with tears from the street?

My Words

The power in ur eyes gat mi thinking,
The Happiest moments that we share
with real love which grows by time never in a minute 
I could re-write the alphabet just for you & i to be close 
You shinning like Astar, what an angel sent from above
Still l'm promising to be true and give my all to you 
For the medicine your love has gat mi overdozed 
Many says Iove ls blind but I can see it in ur eyes 
And Of Course i see a queen in you 
All in All it's you i choose
The long awaited naked truth, 
Today i undress my words.


An Apertif

Her craft had a sizzle and spark,
Lighting up to cook after dark.
So his brainpan swam,
“That’s one succulent clam!”
A morsel, just right for the shark.

Premium Member The Proposal

Rings
Love now
My heart sings
Our wedding vow
Will always love you
You make my life complete
By every  small thing you do
With  you, I  never  feel  defeat
Beautiful one please be mine for life
With loving eyes, say you will be my wife
I will make a garden filled with delight
Hope and respect planted side by side
Our garden will thrive on love's light
Devoted faith grown with pride
Darling, will you accept?
I'm on bended knee
Promises kept
You for me
A plus
Us

Immodest Proposal

It might be an absurd idea
But we need to move on from here
Stalled in the darkness
With no moral compass
To guide us into the clear
 
It might be a ridiculous notion
But we can’t just float on this ocean
For the Scylla and Charybdis
With no light of forgiveness
To warn against the tide of commotion
 
Allow me to propose a thought
That each one do as one ought
Lest the sea level rises
With its schools of surprises
To infinitely rip us apart

If we sail forbidden seas
And land on barbarous coasts,
Who will avail us
When the great wave recedes
And we’re marooned on an island of ghosts?

Proposal

Carnelian, please, I need my strength;
Tell goldstone to be here in lengths
And dragon stone will guide me through,
With rose quartz here, for loving you.
My pyrite guides me to the left.
Labradorite leaves my hand, bereft.
And though my quartz is tattered and shattered,
Tell amethyst that it never mattered.
Just let me cry and let me sing--
Just let my heart explode again!
Snowflake obsidian strips me naked.
Strengthening contrasts are so sacred.
I'll put this rose quartz to my disposal,
Gift opalite ring, accept my proposal
And be with me forevermore.
Please, please be mine, forevermore

Bless This Union!

Lord, it’s the road less traveled that leads us to you. 
We do well to accept the things, you want us to do. 
Which way the road will turn, only you God can see. 
I believe and trust in you, to guide Patricia and me. 
She’s right here beside me now, as you already know. 
She says that she’s willing to go where you tell us to go. 
Help us to hear from you, and keep you first in our mind. 
Cause us to stay humble, and both leave our pride behind. 
I believe and know that with you, Lord, we surely will win. 
We both want to be committed, until the very end. 
Create in me the man that she really needs me to be. 
Let me see her, my Lord, the way you want me to see. 
Help us during times we both might feel alone. 
Let your love permeate, every inch of our marriage home. 
I know that all covenants are very important to you. 
We promise to love, trust your word and leave the rest up to you. 
We’ll put your word first so that others like us can see. 
 The greatness of what Our Lord has done, for Patricia, and me.

Premium Member All that jazz

all that jazz

Hello Dolly, I must confess
those Louis Armstrong tunes
keep churning in my head

I've had Georgia on my mind
since that night we danced cheek to cheek
when we shared a kiss to build a dream on

Since then, I think of only you
and what a wonderful world it would be
if you'd agree to share your life me

What do you say... marry me ~



p.s using titles of Louis Armstrong songs

Premium Member Will you marry me

Sue's
surprise
birthday treat.
A romantic
picnic on the beach
with roses and champagne.
Bill kneels down, and proposes
then produces a diamond ring
Will she marry him ... what do you think?

Proposal

He took her to the beach 
And he said , I want a ice cream?
She smiled and said ok.

When she returns back , she can't found him
She called his name and run throughout the beach,

When she find him,
She cried and hugged him,
He said I'm here, I don't leave you.

Then he said, I don't want to be your friend,
She stunned and asked Why?

With a smiling face he said How can I love my friend?
She shocked and asked what?

"He sit down to propose her with a ring" while she was in shock 
She was stunned, but showed her finger with blushing....

Marriage Vow

One couple pledge
A marriage vow
Build golden dream.

Together bound
Sewed a love thread
Desiring trend.

Side by side sit
Facing altar
Promise each kept.

Hand in hand grip
Switching ring
Switch vow, kissing.

Premium Member A Question Popped

Yes
I guess
Yes, I’m sure
So ask once more
Is it forever
To fall apart - never
It must be a long term thing
Never should its final bell ring
And it must always be right for me
And must come with a lifetime guarantee
So now you dither - so now you're unsure
All hither thither - unlike before
You knew what you wanted from me
And briefly I couldn’t see
It’s trash that you're selling
A rat I’m smelling
For that old car
Won’t get far
And so…
No
