I Sparkle

I sparkle.
	I excite.		
		I incite.  
Strong feelings go along with my purchase.
	
	Congratulations! 
			Wow!	
				I didn’t know!

People we barely know “ooh” and “ah” over me
			Making me feel special.

	Let’s see it.
		He did well.
			He’s a keeper!

My bearer smiles and blushes.  
		Trying desperately to act like I’m not a big deal.
			BUT I AM!

A hush falls over the copy room.      “When’s the big day?”    
		The bride and I both beam.
			We are insanely happy to be fussed over!
