Ruby Heart
I spent my day shopping for Rubies
And entered an old antique store
The owner took me to the back of the shop
Showed me a set and had me begging for more.
The one that stole my heart was a deep red
Encrusted with small pearls
In two layers around the heart
This was the ideal gift for my green eyed girl
Red is the symbol of love for eternity
It was our fortieth Anniversary
I visualised it around my wife‘s neck
There was no happier man than me.
