Rings Always Amaze Me
Rings on our fingers in the 50’s and 60’s.
A big class ring with bandages wrapped around in the back
for those who are going steady in high school.
Mood rings in the 70’s, but not as many wedding rings.
Flower power rings and yellow happy faces rings.
Possibly a barefoot metal car pedal
The 80’s are a blur for me.
Bathtub rings prevalent.
Because I had three small children and they loved being dirty.
The 90’s for me was spiral rings.
I went back to school to get a degree in something.
Not caring what, hoping I could teach with it.
For the past twenty years I have been purchasing rings.
I have a slew of them, but usually wear the same two.
My current favorites. Rings always amaze me.
