My Artist Self

I have twenty-seven rings
Most never see daylight
lingering in my jewelry box

My two favorites are on my hands daily
one a red ruby, the other a blue topaz
with a rainbow opal band.

I have diamond rings somewhere too.
They do not have the color I crave.
My artist self needs these two.

Your rings sound beautiful just like this write. All artists need something that makes them write. Your pen does a wonderful job. Have a blessed day...................

We have to have our colors - my go-to colors are neon orange, neon pink, neon purple and neon green!

Sounds beautiful! I have been taking my jewelry out of the box now that I can go maskless at work. Have a serendipitous day, my friend!
