Thought You’d Never Ask

Here’s a flower for your hair,

Tied to a pair of the shiniest ribbons I could find.

Let’s put them on.

Ah, you look just like the day I first met you –

Six years old and full of glee

I asked if you would marry me.

 It’s been twenty years since,

And darling, I’d like to ask again.
