TWO LOVERS

Two lovers walked in the cool of night

Under twinkling stars and moon so bright

Their hand together were entwined

Their love together did them bind.

The woods were silent, not a sound

And the perfume from flowers did them surround

Then from a distance a clock did chime

Reminding them of the time.

They then stopped and their lips did meet

And their hearts did miss a beat

And on his knees he did make this plea

" I LOVE YOU WILL YOU MARRY ME?"

His hand reached out and took her hand

And his she helped him up to stand

With tears in her eyes she Sobbed I DO

"THERE IS NO ONE ELSE FOR ME BUT YOU"

Then on again they began to walk

Not a word was spoken they could not talk

The look in their eyes that night said it all, you see

As Two lovers that night walked to their destiny.
