WITH THIS RING

TO SOME IT IS SIMPLY DECORATION,
TO OTHERS, TREASURE THAT MAKES THEM RICH,
TO ME IT IS A VESSEL,
IN WHICH MY HEART JUST FITS...

IT CAN BE TINY AND GO UN-NOTICED,
OR FLASHY AND FULL OF FIRE,
SCRATCHED AND WORN ALL OUT OF SHAPE,
OR A BEAUTY TO ADMIRE...

SOME PEOPLE NEED TWO OR THREE,
AND NEVER REALIZE IT'S MEANING,
THERE ARE SOME WHO WILL NEVER HAVE ONE,
WHO'S LOVE IS ALWAYS BEAMING...

SOME HAVE TAKEN IT LIGHTLY,
AND TOSSED IT TO THE WIND,
SOME PUT IT IN HIDING,
WHEN THAT OTHER PERSON WALKS IN...

SOME WANT TO SHOW IT OFF,
IN ALL IT'S GLORY AND SPACTACULAR LIGHT,
SOME ARE JUST REALLY TIRED,
AND TAKE IT OFF TO FINISH THE FIGHT...

IT MATTERS NOT HOW IT LOOKS,
WHETHER IT'S LARGE OR VERY SMALL,
IF LOVE AND TRUST EVADES THE HEART,
IT NEED'NT BE THERE AT ALL...

FOR IT IS A SYMBOL,
AND A PROMISE OF HOW LIFE WILL STAND,
BETWEEN A MAN AND A WOMAN IN LOVE,
THIS GOLDEN WEDDING BAND.
