The half circle...

2 minutes to midnight…..voice slurred with sleep. Happy Birthday K! At midnight the bell rings….is that really you? Unbelievable!!!! Panic, race to bathroom….rinse mouth for fresh breath, hair’s crazy with dampness, heart’s beating like crazy, eyes still droopy…..sleepy wonder as door opens and…over the threshold the divine creature steps in.

He comes bearing gifts!!! Legs almost give way…….body’s quivering. A taste of the sweets………and lo behold…..a return gift (hello….where’s the real gift?). Slow unwrapping of return gift………dizzy. Incredulous! The feeling trickles forth as a half circle of shiny diamonds emerges….Will you marry me??? The words resonate…..heart’s hammering away inside……..Yes.

The day was bound to come yet no girl is ever prepared. The moment was perfect……..magical. The ring is beautiful....like the sun rising.

Sailing in the skies………feet just can’t touch earth….reached the stars……..and exploring the universe.

A step into a new phase in life……the journey gets more exciting. What more could a woman want in a man if you have passion, love, adventure, contentment, romance, security, trust, integrity…….name it, he has it. A happier woman does not exist.
