I was reading viv's comment on this one. So true!! Yeah, things like marriage meaning less and less to people any more. Great topic.

A sharp Senryu, Judy. You are right- nowadays men don't need wedding rings, you can always tell a single man because his clothes don't smell of fabric conditioner. Viv x

Facing up to reality...marriage has lost much of its significance; yours is a very expressive senryu, Judy! ~ Regards // paul

...and another reason is all these soap operas where all is permitted and taken for granted...

Might have something to do with we have lost much of our values. Funny how this all came about...Remember Clark Gable fighting furiously to get , "Frankly my dear I don't give a damn" 'included' in his movie, Gone with the Wind? Then we began having movies screened G rating R rating etc. And that's where it began...So we'll call it give an inch take a yard...take care Paul and thanks for stopping..appreciate it

That circular band is not always symbolic of the meaning, 'without end.' This I know is true. Your senryu packs a sad but truthful punch, Judy...well done.
