The Candle Light Dinner

With a bouquet of orchids and a ring,
He saw her smiling in her sleep
He lovingly in his masculine voice began to sing,
As the alarm clock began to beep.

On her birthday, a day so special,
Every year he had made it unique
Diamonds, roses, emerald,pearl,
Had always surprised her, unable to speak.

Still, on every birthday she longed for something,
A young woman's desire, an unfulfilled wish.
Every birthday, she would wait for her husband to bring,
An evening with a candle light dinner to cherish!

As years went by, every birthday came,
With cars, apartments, earrings and clothes bright.
Love and romance that put other couples to shame,
But not a dinner with candles alight.

With silver hair, a stick in his hand,
He saw her smiling in her sleep.
He lovingly tried to sing at his grand,
As the alarm clock began to beep.

He held her hand, took her out of the room,
Cunningly he had made her skip dinner that night.
Out into the world of the stars and moon,
Where her craziest dream came into sight.

A satin table , where light from a thousand candles flowed,
With silver cutlery filled with food to feast,
At seventy two, her weak eyes glowed,
Living the dream she longed to cherish.

With melodies of love, he took her there,
The magical table with the finest wine,
Love and romance still in the air
As the old couple began to dine!!
