The scene would have made Van Gogh cut off his right ear or Wordsworth prance on the vale like a senile seven-year-old. Such a setting is fine when you enjoy solitude or #soporific matrimony. Many brave men before me have fallen from grace on such a scene, I knew.
My head was tilting to the right and hers to the right too, ready for a long and tender kiss (as per philematologists' decree).
Without going on my knees, I crooned to that amazing lady, “Will you marry me?”
She replied, “Enschuldigung, ich verstehe nicht (Sorry, I don’t understand).”
I knew enough German to translate but I did not.
