Each day I so wanted

   Each day I so wanted to 
  hold your little hand in mine
and soon get done what you would
  want of me. So, I came by,
 and without much hope, to ask
(beg) for you to marry me.
  We said, "I do," soon after.



Carry On Tuesday #107
"So little done, so much to do." - last words of Cecil Rhodes in 1902
I kinda like the 7 lines with 7 syllables.
For some reason, Carry On Tuesday prompts seem to make lovely acrostic type poems.

  1. nice one!
    Kind of feels like you are stressing on time spent after marriage. You are done with proposals now comes the serious stuff, so much to do. :-)
