A Ring

I don't believe my wife reads this blog on any regular basis so let's see how long it takes her to find this poem written for her.  It will probably take one of you more regular readers to alert her to the fact that there is a new poem written for her.  Which one of you will do it?????



I wear a ring on my left hand
It helps define just who I am
Husband, lover, counselor, friend
And like I said “Till death doth end”
Day or night, it’s like a brand
I wear a ring on my left hand


Oh, I’ve had my share of life’s flirtations
Traveling across this nation
Girls in clubs or at the bar
Wondering just who you are
But I’m not into one night stands
I wear a ring on my left hand


There was a time before the ring
Like other guys, I had my flings
I’d meet a girl I thought was hot
Without a thought I’d take a shot
Then came one I hadn’t planned
I wear a ring on my left hand


She slipped into my very heart
And we both knew right from the start
There comes a time to settle down
When at last true love is found
And for my love I took this stand
I wear a ring on my left hand
