Advancing

I walked for a mile

With a big smile –

It was all worthwhile.

 

The flowers blooming

Were very pleasing

With colours consuming,

 

Blessed me walking free,

In a spirit of ecstasy

Appreciating the beauty.

 

Feeling the sun up high

I wondered what was nigh –

Happy merriment or a sigh.

 

Would she accept my charms,

As I am suffering some alms

Not being in her hugging arms.

 

I'll accept my future fate,

Only now a short wait

As I opened her front-gate.

 

I knocked at her large door,

Feeling small and insecure

With being frightfully unsure.

 

While I patiently waited for she

I enjoyed the garden scenery –

A source of scenic serenity.

 

She opened the door not sore

From me being a regrettable bore

From not fulfilling a mundane chore.

 

She hugged my close to her,

I love her being my partner

And I’m glad we’re together.
