Giggling and talking over dinner,
You look at my lovingly over your drink.
A day spent together laughing and loving
Is reflected in your sparkling eyes.

You reach into your pocket and pull
From it a small, tiny paper box.
Opening it reveals a simple band of silver.
I catch my breath at the unexpected.

Taking the ring in your beautiful hands,
You gently slip the band on my finger.
I look down at my newly decorated hand,
And look back at your eyes… the world blurry.

The best gift that you have ever given
Is the time I’ve spent with you.
The band of silber I now have
Only makes my love for you grow more.
