PROPOSAL

There are those who don't believe 

in ceremony, rituals or what have you - 

moments like prayers before meals. 

If they're married, ask them how their

proposal went: then ask them again 

if they still don’t  believe in ritual. 

What about weddings, wakes and funerals? 

What about birthdays and anniversaries? 

What about all those times we were 
waiting to hear a, "Thanks!" or a "I'm sorry!"?
