Unforgettable Moments

Metallic silver shining in the sun,
Rays of brightness, bouncing off the individual ribbons
That bind together the eternal love captured
In the never-ending ring of memories.

As the sterling silver makes contact with my skin,
Shivers run up my arm
Shocked from the chill of the familiar smooth metal
That’s been connected to my wrist since my 10th birthday

The audacious cat smirking at me
With eyes as big as marbles
And a heart full of memories
He’s been with me from the start

Every special occasion,
Every special moment,
Every up and down,
The uplifting ornament has been by my side

This is more than just an object,
It’s a part of me
A piece of my life
