| A Date To Remember The door bell rang. I opened the door and there he stood handsome as ever. He handed me the most beautiful bouquet of flowers. They were pink and blue tiger lilies wrapped in beautiful clear paper and tied with gold ribbon. I blushed and said, "thank you". He took my hand and escorted me to the white limousine parked in my driveway. "What's the occasion," I said. "You will see," he said. While we drove we had champaign. When we arrived, we were at a big cruise boat. My mind was racing with wander. We entered this room that looked like a big ballroom. The walls were gold. The windows were long and huge, covered with red satin curtains pulled back with gold sash. In the middle was a long wooden oak table decorated with crystal and roses. We sat down and ate the most wonderful meal that you could imagine, with prime rib, potatoes, vegetables, soup, and wine. After we ate, we went to the top of the ship and looked at the ocean and the twinkly stars in the dark sky. Soft music played in the background. We danced all night long. We stopped for a short while and looked into each others eyes and kissed. It was soft but yet a passionate kiss. He gently pulled away and said I have something for you. He pulled out a tiny blue satin box and opened it. There laid a beautiful, eye opener diamond ring. He said,will you marry me......... I said yes. |
