know
you love her
we’ve seen you
two together
inseparable separates
two halves of a whole
why how act shy now?
be direct already
isn’t it time to put a ring on it?
can guess she thinks yes
go ahead
tie that gnarly knot!
Linking to quadrille prompt at dVerse where Mish has chosen the word “knot”….

Great close lynn. Takes great courage to pop the question. So just do it or it will not happen

This is a sweet one 🙂

I didn’t see gnarly coming, sends a whole different message, one that indicates a less smooth path?
Mar 23, 2021 @ 12:04:58
Yep, relationships are complicated 🙂
Mar 24, 2021 @ 09:36:05
Yes, very much agree.
Mar 23, 2021 @ 07:13:33
This made me smile 🙂 sometimes you just need to take the plunge!
Mar 23, 2021 @ 12:03:53
YES!

It seems people are waiting longer today, but it will always be a leap of faith. The gnarly knot is beautifully displayed in your image! ❤

Thank you, Tricia 🙂

I love your gnarly knot! Great poem Lynn. It does make one wonder sometimes when we see two people in love and enjoying life, but never decide to get married!
Mar 22, 2021 @ 22:12:04
Thanks for commenting, Dwight…I agree 🙂

This is so sweet. And I really like your choice to call it a gnarly knot. Marriage isn’t always easy. 😊
Mar 22, 2021 @ 18:11:08
Exactly…tangled and sometimes downright gnarly 😉
Mar 22, 2021 @ 17:17:15
The “gnarly” knot added a bit of twist at the end. It struck me like a story, making me wonder what’s in store for them….
Mar 22, 2021 @ 17:44:46
We cannot see the future!

“inseparable separates” such a simple truth but stated so beautifully!
Mar 22, 2021 @ 16:36:07
Thank you, Evan!
Mar 22, 2021 @ 16:24:47
Like your bold advice and playful tone. It’s a gnarly one, indeed.
Mar 22, 2021 @ 16:35:34
I appreciate your appreciation 🙂
Mar 22, 2021 @ 16:08:51
Sounds like the situation with my older son and his girlfriend! Maybe one day…
Mar 22, 2021 @ 16:11:53
Hope they do, Lisa 🙂
Mar 22, 2021 @ 15:55:49
“Gnarly” – that’s an interesting choice of word.
Mar 22, 2021 @ 16:11:15
Thanks, David!

Tying the knots should be a decision for life… maybe they are not quite ready yet.
Mar 22, 2021 @ 16:10:48
Written “tongue in cheek”…you’d have to know the couple very well to even suggest marriage 🙂
