A RING

A Promise

A RING

A ring is a piece of jewelry.

Behind it, there is a story.

Definitely no tomfoolery.

Sparkling in its glory.

The jewelry is impressive

It wasn't the joint.

Believing it's expensive

Was that the point?

Jewelry is symbolic of their love.

Promises made with their vows.

Rings fit like a glove.

Their love promise allows.

The years come and go.

With each anniversary a kiss.

A promise long ago.

It wasn't hit or miss.

A promise.

A ring.

A vow.

Love keeps on growing somehow.

Writer's notes: Thank you for reading. You are appeciated. This poem was written for a Vocal Writing Prompt mini Challenge #2. Jewelry was a word prompt.
