I've heard the music a smile secretly sings
And the sudden thunder a teardrop brings
No beginning or ending round a golden wedding ring
Together love and time keep on turning
It takes but one breath to keep on living
When your dreams and sorrows become the same thing
Empty eyes open there for the forgiving
Then memories invade, night becomes morning
Like the ring we wear, no beginning or end
We search to see where this journey shall send
Apart we are halfed neither night or day
Where nothing can grow, shall it be that way?

Resting Ancestors,
Far from Science,
But the fathers of social science,
Traditions and beliefs,theories of their science,
From rise to demise,
Marriage plays in between,
Bride and bride groom,
Bridging a gold ring,
Round like the moon,no ending surround,
Between in and out a tiny wall stands,
Many curves and many bends like Iceland,
In and out,curves and bends teaching some concepts,
To all the brides and grooms to accept-
Come in as we send out I,
Give in take out,
Joy in sorrow out,
Reaching the curves and bends,
Learn-
To turn!

Golden Jubilee--
the wedding ring still glowing
like her smiling face
their love a full grown tree now
trying to touch the blue sky

Wedding Ring
Why did you take my wedding ring? Did taking it give you a zing? Did hurting me give you a
double ring in your b b thing? Did the carats make your heart sing?
Did you think your new lady would like my ring? Wouldn’t it sting her to know whose thing
that was first darling?
That hurt more than anything. Why did you take my ring?
We have the fingers – Let’s knot
I had memorized each word of the vows,
Till death do us apart- I do,
My thoughts were on one thing,
A helper I was going to get
Splendor of beauty and fairness
My heart was racing,
I couldn’t think straight,
I wanted everything to go faster,
She had promised me a lot,
I wanted to find out all,
She had repaired my broken walls
And pledged herself whole
She was led down the aisle,
My eyes were pinned on her,
She looked at me and smiled,
My soul lipped within,
Every eye couldn't blink
All i did was take a breath
The priest said a lot
I remember none
The rings were brought
I had bought them earlier alone,
I knew her finger size so i went alone,
I had guessed right the engagement ring,
I was sure of the wedding ring too,
I made my vows,
Put a ring in her finger,
It couldn’t fit,
I pushed hard,
It couldn’t,
I started to sweat,
She knew what was wrong,
I pushed it harder,
She laughed,
The priest smiled,
My face turned red,
The priest realized so he shouted,
You can kiss the bride,
I didn’t want all to go wrong
I bent down, held her close
Kissed the ring into her soul
To the Vena Amoris of the soul
We were declared
Husband and wife

Sponsor: Olive Eloisa Guillermo
For years it shone gold
Brightening a lonely home
Left home for a walk
Late hubby’s ring was stolen
What thief could be so heartless
*This just happened to me.
Written March 31, 2014 for Chris’s contest
So my super decided
He’d break down the wall.
He’d recover my ring
With no problem at all.
First he smashed down the back
Of the closet behind
Where the bathtub resides
(And the ring was confined).
But he couldn’t quite reach
So the hole kept on growing.
I wasn’t relaxed
With the way things were going.
I tried to say, “Stop!”
But more workers arrived,
All convinced that my wedding ring
Surely survived.
As I paced and regretted
Allowing this folly,
The super extracted my ring –
Oh, my golly!
I burst into tears
Not believing my luck,
Amazed that my ring
Wasn’t vanished or stuck.
I looked up a jeweler
Who shined it to gleaming
And almost believed
All this time I’d been dreaming.
The ending is happy
So I’m not complaining
But this is one day
That was totally draining.
Wedding Ring
I don’t have a thing
But I have this ring
Promise of love and everlasting
A true pact from God’s blessing
A smile in my heart that's never-ending
Enjoy every moments that's inspiring
Coz with my family, life is worth living
I can do everything
Even I don’t have a thing
My wedding ring is very plain.
It’s just a band of gold
And with its mate, it’s like my marriage –
Thirty-nine years old.
We chose our rings and had them then
Inscribed with words intended
To last a lifetime; substitutes
Are rarely recommended.
That ring is like a part of me
So I cannot explain
How in the shower, it slipped off
And tumbled down the drain.
We tried to get it back. Alas,
It seems to be quite gone.
I shed some tears and still feel sad
But life and love go on.
I’ll search for a replacement and
The moment that I choose it,
My husband’s new inscription will be,
“This time – do not lose it!”
The wedding ring is
Worn on left fourth finger part
Sign close to the heart.
Our marriage is now over twenty years long
The friendship remains but the passion seems gone
I watch her sleeping at nights; sometimes she'll gyrate and moan
I wonder if she dreams with her wedding ring on
Is she making love to me or some mystery man
Does she dream of the past or one of our friends
When she's awake all I get is the "I've got a headache now" song
I wonder if she dreams with her wedding ring on
As for me I am still very active below
But my hands, of lately, are the only lovers I know
I can tell by her dreaming the desire is not completely gone
I wonder if she dreams with her wedding ring on
Perhaps it's not her and it really is me
Perhaps I don't satisfy her quite completely
I watch her gyrate for over a half hour long
I wonder if she dreams with her wedding ring on
Should I wake her and take her in this erotic state
It dejects me when she rejects me; it might be a mistake
So I watch, not moving and not playing along
And, I wonder if she dreams with her wedding ring on
Monkey wedded a baboon
in the Banana temple it was
squirrel was presiding clergy
Monkey sat and meditated;
“No, to a ring in my fingers
My toes are dirty and clumsy
The ears are a shapeless beef
What exactly should I do?
Now, I know the best option
Ring must be worn there
There, there in my long tail
I can hide it between my legs
and deny having wedded
before my monkey girlfriends
Hurray, I have the best vision”
And so it happened as she chose
He wore wedding ring in the tail
But every time he wore it got lost
Whenever her husband asked;
“Why can’t you keep the ring safe?
She answered smiling;
“Whatever happens behind me,
Surely cannot be my concern”.
A romantic ring, beautiful to behold
…dazzling diamond or gorgeous gold
A symbol of a special synchronization
A real ring, not just for fun or fashion
A romantic ring, not for boys not for beast,
A righteous ring, presented before a priest.
Meant for a married man… a mild ring
Fit for a wise, worthy woman... wedding ring.
A cute curve of kindness, caresses and kiss
Built beautifully, bringing blessings and bliss.
The gold band
Highlights the place,
Marks it out,
Encircles it,
Tells the world
That I belong,
The finger points out our love
Its gold band,
Worn like a crown,
Gives it weight,
Solemn duty,
Proudly born,
It represents
Vows I made to you for life
