The Ring


He places it on her finger and the light interacts
Free electrons circulate and bounce reflecting the light.
She just knows it is polished and glowing and circles her life
She is becoming his wife.

The golden band glitters splendid and splendent
Like the sun it shines brightly through the suds and the dishes.
Years of heartache and wonder and laughter and strife
For she is his wife.

Good times were many but arguments more rife
And as she removes the lustrous metal
She is no longer his wife.
