The key does turn in the lock,
Enter upon a scene of candles,
Surprise upon your face.
Silently we embrace.
My finger upon your lips,
A signal for your silence.
Deep down you understand.
I seat you at the table,
Your gaze travels all around.
A silent gasp escapes your lips,
As flowers all around abound.
Roses, orchids, carnations and many more,
Greet your perception.
Before you, I place a feast of delicacies.
I pluck a choclate strawberry,
And feed you sensuously,
Oh so slowly...
Bit by bit, apple, banana, kiwi too,
I let you savour their sweet temptations.
All the while Barry softly croons in your ear.
Gently I raise you up and kiss your lips,
Taste the fruits upon my tongue.
I twirl you round,
Dance you to the bathroom,
Where a tub of bubbles awaits.
Slowly I disrobe you,
Guide you within the warmth.
Once more a sigh does escape,
It brings pleasure to my heart.
Gently do I bathe you within,
Washing away your aches.
Your chest does rise,
Enjoying the sweet aroma.
Awhile I let you lie,
Enjoying the waters warmth,
But soon I guide you into a towels embrace.
Drying you gingerly, takes oh so long...
Once more I lead you...
Bedroom bound you are.
I lay you upon the bed,
I can feel your anticipation as you quiver.
In your hand, I place some wine,
One by one your feet I massage,
Then the rest of you.
Your sighs feed my happiness,
As I relieve your stress.
No word I have spoken yet,
To early it still is.
The night is in its infancy,
No need to rush on, enjoy.
I kiss you once more yearning,
Savour the chardonnay.
With lust in your eyes,
You lunge for me, like cat upon a mouse.
Softly I lay you back down.
Scented oil does come next,
Upon your skin I do rub.
Every goose bump I trace lovingly.
Upon your back I do write.
I love you.
It takes but only one try for you to get.
You turn and kiss me once more.
The silence is eating me up inside.
I stand and upon you I look,
The woman I so much love.
Upon my knee I do bend.
In the candles glow,
A glint does catch your eye,
Your eyes do light up at the sight,
Now and only now I do speak,
"Will you marry me?"
An eternity seems to pass,
While my heart stands still.
I almost did not hear your answer,
"Yes!"
Tears that day did we shed,
Not of pain but of joy.
Here I sit and remember the day,
The day you first said yes to me.
