My Lost Ring

Oh dear ruby ring,
How I miss thou;
All I wanted to do was sing,
But I had to struggle, bend and bow;

Amidst the crowd and commotion,
Trying to stand straight even with the nausea;
Unsettled was the description of the situation,
At that point I no longer wanted to be here;

Then came the time to assemble,
I wondered what the rush was about;
Peeps pushing, I could crumble,
My body was in a state of drought;

Little did I know I wouldn’t get past stage one,
That I would also lose you, my precious;
I finally got into a room, thank God!
I gulp the clean air so superfluous;

That was when you called out from afar,
“Mama, mama, I’m gone, miss me, miss me!”
I raised my dainty left hand,
What I saw almost made me weep;

I saw nothing! You were gone,
How you fell off, I cannot explain;
But they called on me and I had to move on,
To no one I could complain;

None has replaced you and none can,
My jewellery compartment is incomplete without you;
So is my middle finger,
Promise to never forget you.

G.r.a.t.!.t.u.d.e.

Whew!!! It almost took forever to create this thing, and my legs ache like crazy from sitting down at the computer for what seemed like a gazillion hours! So my first post is dedicated to my supporter through the hours of yawning, squinting and having a very (did I say very?) late dinner... oh! and the fish at dinner was great! Delicious!

Gracias muchas @judeylive...
