The Proposal

The sun falls in a cloudless sky
The moon begins to rise
The stars are shining brightly
In the reflection in her eyes

A breeze begins to blow her hair
Across her ivory skin
A smile crosses her lovely face
As her thoughts return to him

She remembers the way he touched her face
As his lips brushed against hers
His kisses left her breathless
They took away her words

She remembers the way there bodies felt
In loves warm embrace
He took her to another world
Another time and place

He made her feel so many things
That she had long forgotten
He took her to the very top
From the bottom of the mountain

She closes her eyes and remembers the words
That took her breath away
As he looked deep into her eyes
And got on bended knee

He took her soft hands into his own
His eyes as blue as the sea
My darling how I love you
Will you marry me.
