In the Deep

Miniature marine animals paralysed on glistening golden band
Secured far from its bed of sand
Eyes of diamonds invite me to linger
Echoes of the past as I glide it on my finger
The ring I crave holds endless memories
A time machine of the past as it sashays down my phalanges
A comic of an ocean mammal transformed into a family story
I desire that I will own it in all its beauty and glory.
