Mood Ring

In my every day travels of traveling on 
I found a mood ring on the side of the road 
Instead of my pocket where things I find go 
I was put in the mood to put the ring on 

Immediately it went from orange to pink 
Happy with my find 
It's not everyday you run across a treasure like this 
Outside of the five-and-dime 

Every minute or two I kept checking my mood 
To see just how I felt 
Between bouncing back the red and the black 
Getting nervous I was overly stressed 

Deciding to actively seek my mood ring to green 
I went light blue instead 
I had no problem with that as a matter of fact 
With the feeling of being relaxed 

Still I'd like to go back to the mood I was in
Before I  knew about it 
So I took a detour a smart move for sure 
And dropped the ring back where I found it
