It was a beautiful spring day in 1909. The sun was shining, the birds were singing, and the air was filled with the scent of freshly bloomed flowers.
John had been planning this day for weeks. He had been planning to ask the love of his life, Mary, to marry him. He had been dreaming of this day for years, and he was finally ready to make his move.
John had decided to take Mary on a picnic in the park. He had packed a basket full of food and drinks, and he had even brought a blanket to sit on. He was determined to make this the most romantic day of Mary's life.
When they arrived at the park, John spread out the blanket and they sat down. He opened the basket and pulled out a bottle of champagne. He popped the cork and poured two glasses. He handed one to Mary and raised his glass.
"Mary, I have been in love with you since the day I met you. I cannot imagine spending my life with anyone else. Will you marry me?"
Mary was speechless. She had been dreaming of this moment for years, and now it was finally here. She looked into John's eyes and said, "Yes, I will marry you."
John smiled and pulled out a ring from his pocket. He slipped it onto Mary's finger and kissed her. They embraced and shared a passionate kiss.
John and Mary were married a few months later. They had a beautiful wedding and a long and happy marriage. They were truly a love lost in time.
