Class Ring

-Class ring-
   Close by the door 
She paused to stand
As she took her
Class ring from her hand 
All who were
Watching could not speak 
As a single tear ran down her cheek 
Memories of the moments 
Where the laughed together
 under the sun 
His deep green eyes 
Have grown cold 
She can no longer
Have him in her arms to hold 
  She whispered “I love you “
As she bent near 
 Her words so soft
None could hear 
And on his finger
She placed her ring 
Hoping forgiveness it would bring 
 She said goodbye and gave him a kiss. This special guy she knew 
She’d miss
The doors closed 
Her head hung low 
As they carried his
Casket through the snow ~JAZ~
