Golden Ring Poem

Soft and Gentle Ring

By RAYMOND OGWUPublished about a year ago 4 min read

This poem explores the journey of a golden ring through different hands and hearts, emphasizing its timeless symbol of love and the magic it holds in connecting people across generations.

In a time of yore, in a land so bright,

Where the sun gave gold to the morning light,

A craftsman toiled through night and day,

To shape a ring in the olden way.

His hands were steady, his heart was pure,

His love for the craft was his only cure.

He forged from fire, with hammer and song,

A ring of gold, both firm and strong.

The ring was simple, yet held a grace,

Reflecting the dreams in his weathered face.

Its surface smooth, with a polished gleam,

Caught the light like a golden dream.

In the village square, the people came,

Drawn to the glow of the ring’s soft flame.

They marveled at the beauty, the work so fine,

As if it were touched by the hand divine.

A merchant saw it, his eyes did gleam,

"Such a treasure will make my dreams," he deemed.

He offered silver, he offered gold,

But the craftsman refused, his heart was bold.

"For this ring is special," the craftsman said,

"It holds more than gold, or dreams of bread.

It was made for love, and love alone,

To bind two hearts, to become one’s own."

The merchant scowled but walked away,

Yet the ring’s allure, it did not sway.

A young maiden, with eyes so bright,

Gazed at the ring in the soft twilight.

She saw the love in its golden hue,

And knew that her heart, it spoke true.

She whispered words of love and grace,

As tears of joy ran down her face.

The craftsman smiled, his heart at peace,

For he knew her love would never cease.

He placed the ring on her delicate hand,

A promise made in a timeless land.

The ring was worn through joy and strife,

A symbol of their eternal life.

It glowed with warmth, through winter’s chill,

A token of love’s enduring will.

Generations passed, the ring remained,

A constant light in the hearts it claimed.

Through wars and peace, through feast and famine,

It never lost its golden glimmer.

One day, a storm blew fierce and wild,

And a boy found the ring, lost and beguiled.

He saw the beauty, the warmth it gave,

And knew it was more than a treasure to save.

He brought it home to his mother dear,

Whose eyes lit up with a single tear.

She told the tale of the ring’s old lore,

A story passed down from days of yore.

The boy listened with eyes so wide,

As his mother spoke of the ring with pride.

He felt the magic, the love so deep,

As he held the ring in his hand to keep.

Years went by, the boy grew tall,

And found his love, in a twilight call.

He gave her the ring, with a heart so true,

And felt the love that forever grew.

The ring was a circle, with no end,

A symbol of love that could transcend.

It passed through hands, from young to old,

A story of love forever told.

In the heart of the ring, a secret lay,

A love that could never fade away.

It whispered promises, soft and sweet,

To every heart that it would meet.

The ring had power, beyond the gold,

A magic that never could be sold.

It spoke of love in a silent tongue,

A song of hearts forever sung.

The golden ring, it traveled far,

A beacon bright, like a guiding star.

It touched the lives of those in need,

With a promise of love, a sacred creed.

In a distant land, where shadows crept,

The ring found a heart that softly wept.

It brought forth light, in the darkest night,

And filled the heart with a love so bright.

The ring of gold, with its simple grace,

Held the power to change a place.

It mended hearts, and healed the soul,

With a love that made them whole.

As years went by, the story grew,

Of a golden ring, so pure and true.

It became a legend, a tale to tell,

Of a love that could break any spell.

The ring, though small, held great might,

A symbol of love, pure and bright.

It whispered secrets, and tales of old,

Of a love that could never be sold.

In a future time, when days are long,

The ring will still sing its timeless song.

It will find new hearts, and new dreams to weave,

With a promise of love that we all believe.

The golden ring, with its endless tale,

Will forever guide, and never fail.

A circle unbroken, with love so wide,

A beacon of hope, a love so tried.

In every heart, the ring will glow,

A reminder of love, as we all know.

For in the end, what truly sings,

Is the love we find in golden rings.
