My Ring Finger
My Ring Finger
The fingers I see,
Long, pointed and soft,
As a lotus flowers,
Distant memory fades
It graces the face
The fingers once did trace,
As it leaves a churning
Whirl in me
I look beyond my window
Many passers by I see
Who perhaps have yet to do?
Many a chores that await me
The fourth finger
A remembrance of the love
Then so pure
Now in eyes a tear
A quivering sore
The ears continuously ring
As I wash the dishes
Through autumn to spring
The memories of anniversaries
My finger continues to string.

Arabian Nights,
we make up
to break up
and then remake
for a longer take
when we then totally shake
what was our mistake.????
I love your intentions
for you are too Gods,
