Proposal Idea No. 1

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

1. Buy a paperback book of poetry (ex. Love Poems for Cards & Letters)

2. Glue all the pages together

3. Towards the bottom of the book, in the exact center, carve out the interior pages in the shape of the engagement ring. (Use an exacto knife to get a clean cut) - Place the engagement ring in the carved out area to make sure that it fits.

4. Buy a piece of off-white cardstock (heavy paper)

5. On it, write the following poem:


There comes a time in every man's life,

When he must take a chance and choose a wife;

That time has finally come to be -

So will you take a chance and marry me?


6. Glue the heavy paper (cardstock) onto the first interior page - Glue the top portion only, so that the card can be flipped up to reveal the engagement ring.

7. Place the book on the back seat of your car/pickup.

8. On the way to a resort, stop at a rest stop to buy a soft drink.

9. Tell your sweetheart that you want to drink the soda before continuing on.

10. Tell her that you found a great poetry book and that you tried your hand at writing a poem. Reach over and give the book to her and ask for her opinion.

11. She will read it. There may be a look of bewilderment as your love realises that this is a proposal. Just at that moment of hesitation, say "flip the top page up."

12. If there was a moment of doubt as to what was happening, it will be erased when the engagement ring comes into full view.

13. Hopefully, her answer will be "YES."
