Yesterday I proposed to my Chris (who some of you know) and he said yes :)

Congratulations!

Gemma proposed to Chris
who thought she was taking the Michael
When he realised that she was sincere
and thought: well, since she is here,
I might as well accept her advance
before she next jets off to France
for another WOL poetry show
in that beautiful town of Bordeaux.

Happy engagement you two!

Yippeeeeeeeeeeeee!

You old traditionalist leaper you.

Many congratulations.

I haven't met Chris, but he is a very lucky person. A brave one, but very very lucky. :-)

Congratulations Gemma.
To me these words span the centuries.

My True Love Hath My Heart And I Have His
Sir Philip Sidney 1554 -86

My true love hath my heart and I have his,
By just exchange one for the other given.
I hold his dear, and mine he cannot miss,
There never was a better bargain driven.

His heart in me keeps me and him in one,
My heart in him his thoughts and senses guides:
He loves my heart, for once it was his own,
I cherish his because in me it bides.

Thanks very much everyone :)

Expect tonnes of right soppy poems now.....

Many congrats to you both.

Tony
