Corals in a shell: Bottle of love. Blog Marathon Post 14.

I had no intentions of writing a poem today. But a real good friend of mine requested for a love poem, so I did write one. Hope you like it. :)

A closed box it was

Neatly wrapped with pink paper

With bows made out of

Satin ribbons, edges tapered.

I wonder what it is

So neatly covered, so full of love.

I smile looking at the package

And hear my heart say, “Open it now!”

I listen to my inner voice

And very carefully un-wrap the gift

It is a bottle, of champagne

With a love note inside of it.

I read it, blushing.

“My dear, for all the love you have given me,

I had to get you something, special.

So here it is, open it and see.”

I uncork the bottle, but it is empty.

Surprised I upturn the bottle and in my hand,

Drops a beautiful solitaire ring with a tag on it saying,

“I love you. Could we both get together and create our very own fairyland?”
