James is 27 years old. He works for a church in America and he does not have a lot of money. He works at a church because he wants to help people. He has a girlfriend Sonya and they are in love.
Two years ago, James decided he wanted to spend the rest of his life with Sonya. Unfortunately, he didn't have enough money to buy a diamond ring. So each month, he saved some money and waited patiently. Last year, he finally saved enough money to buy a 1 carat diamond ring for Sonya. When he got the ring, he immediately made plans to propose.
He picked a perfect Saturday to take Sonya out on a hot air balloon ride. The sky was blue and the clouds were white. The air was fresh and they were both very happy. When the time was right, he took out the ring and asked Sonya to marry him. She was so excited that she jumped up and down in joy. However, they were in this big basket 500 ft above the ground and James lost his balance. He dropped the ring into the forest below. He was heart-broken because he knew that he didn't have enough money to buy another diamond ring.
On the following Monday morning, he asked God to help him find the ring. He went to the forest and searched for it. Although he didn't find it, he didn't give up. He prayed again the next day before going to the forest to search for the ring. On the 7th day, he found it under a leaf! He was very happy and Sonya was even happier. They are now making plans to get married in June, 2010.
Poem
Will you marry me?
For all the world to see.
Oh no, where is my ring?
I wish I had wings.
I should have knelt on my knee.
