Theme: Cynicism

Her Engagement Ring

her well manicured
long dainty fingers
with a trendy red
nail varnish drew
everyone's attention
not her engagement ring

a solitaire diamond
his family heirloom
that was supposed
to be the cynosure
of all eyes given
its value and rarity

her future mother-in-law
rankled over the insult
referring to the guests
as poor folk unable to
appreciate the value of
a unique piece of rock
