A New Ring

Love unexpected dropped me to my knees and then lower still. I could feel tears upon my cheeks as I wondered at this expression of the heart. I held a ring in my hand with a note of generosity and love. My mind went blank in the moment and I could but wonder at such a gift. I knew only in part the beauty of its meaningful offering.

Looking out the window I could see the clouds roll back and the promise of open heavens began to emerge. I had set the ring upon my counter and now it was time to try it on. It fit but one finger with perfection and that was where I wore my wedding ring.
