Dummy Ring

Her guy on the surf proposes how?
A ring in his hand he does bow.
          It slips into sea
          Unreal except she —
He needed an answer right now.

Funny how most women expect a ring when they are proposed to - I got my engagement ring from my husband on our wedding day - I thought he had forgotten, but he felt that the day we got married would be more important appropriate - A witty poem Kim but I see below that it was a dummy ring and he still had the real one, clever write. Hugs and blessings, Jennifer.

Well the young man on a surf board used a dummy ring knowing he would probably drop the real thing which he left behind. He wanted to propose on his surf board.
