There Was Nothing More To Say Poem by Joyce Hemsley

'Twas though his life had just begun
as she sat down by his side;
he ordered a candlelit meal for two
and tempted her with red wine.

Her delicate perfume touched his heart
and scented the midnight air;
those beautiful blue eyes sparkled
as he gazed on her face so fair.

The evening was filled with romance
such as he had never known...
a stranger had become his lover ~
it was her, and her alone.

No need to fall down on his knees
or arrange their wedding day,
they were already united as one.
'There was nothing more to say.'
