Man Proposes to Girlfriend by Writing a Children’s Book

ADVERTISEMENT

Now here’s a proposal idea that a girl just couldn’t say “no” to. Redditor ppaul9 wrote a kid’s book filled with cute drawings and a poem about how he fell for his girlfriend, and it included the scene where he proposes and acts it out as his love was reading it! The lovelorn guy had his story illustrated and printed out and hid the book at a local library – along with a photographer, who later captured the whole romantic proposal.

As the couple was looking for children’s books for the girl’s nephews and nieces, the romantic guy “found” the one he wrote and asked her to read it out loud to him. Once the girl got to the book illustration where the gorilla proposes to his beloved giraffe, the guy knelt and made the fairy tale come true. I don’t think anybody doubts the ”happily ever after” after the best proposal possible!

    There once was a gorilla

    That fell for a giraffe.

    She surprised him by how much

    She could make him laugh.

    The two, you see,

    Were from different worlds

    Their first date, so nervous,

    He’d certainly hurl.

    In spite of their differences,

    It was love at first sight.

    His feelings grew quickly,

    His heart took to flight.

    The gorilla, his life,

    Unpolished and scattered

    Now refined and focused

    On those things that matter.

    There were simply no words

    For how lucky he’d gotten.

    Without her by his side

    Life would surely be rotten.

    It’s hard to believe

    Just how happy they were.

    He could not imagine

    Even one day without her.

    So he got on one knee

    And uttered the plea:

    “My dearest giraffe,

    Will you marry me?”

    He felt his heart beating

    Right out of his chest.

    He could do nothing but wait

    And hope she’d say YES.

    When she finally answered

    He could not stop grinning

    Because he knew, in his heart,

    This was just The Beginning!
