The sun was shining brightly,
The wind was soft and cool.
The grasses were greener than ever,
The flowers were pretty beautiful.
I was sitting on the front porch of my house,
Feeling the wind and the sun on my skin.
Looking at a distance, I saw someone coming.
He was running towards this way.
As he approached, I realised it was him
I stood up, smiling,
He came close to me and smiled too
With a spark in his eyes.
He suddenly bend down on his knees
I didnt get a chance to think what he was doing
Then at once he took out something from his pocket
And said, Will you marry me?
It came like a surprise to me
I smiled and said, Yes, I will and extended my hand
He happily put the ring on my finger
And he kissed me tight.
