Soft candles glowing, chilled bottle of wine A window's magnificent view The smells of the dinner are simply sublime There's a single red rose on the table for two... No reservations required in advance The lady alone waits for you Her perfume and gown hint at later romance But it all has it's start at the table for two... It's an everyday table you bought long ago That is used in your everyday life Tonight it's transformed and she hopes you will know That she's still so much more than an everyday wife! Into the house so familiar, but yet You sense there is something amiss The soft music plays but it's tune you forget As you're led to the table by way of a kiss... Mystery plays in the smile on her lips Her plans are a secret to you She reaches across with her soft fingertips And the night comes alive at the table for two...

Softly romantic! I love your table for two ... and it should be like that, we can do more out of our everyday tables. Very beautiful. Love, Margherita |

VOE... This one was beautiful. I guess there are times when we start to take our partners for granted. But it's a nice surprise to be reminded like this! Bec "Now, Harry you must know all about Muggles, tell me, what exactly is the function of a rubber duck?" ~ Arthur Weasley |

There are few skills as beautiful as making an everyday object into one of beauty and romance. Great write! I enjoyed reading this. “We are all travelers in the wilderness of this world, and the best that we can find in our travels is an honest friend.” –Robert Louis Stevenson |

Very hopeful that even these less than thrilling relationships have a chance for romance. Sandra |
