Gold is lucky - so some believe
but I'm not sure - and here's why
I had an accident with my ring
which nearly brought a tear to my eye
because my precious wedding band broke
this I found to be most upsetting
because I'm a very sensitive bloke
I caught my ring on a passing handle
and nearly lost my finger!
so there it lays in a bottom draw
forever more to linger
(the ring not my finger BTW!)
so now I wear a different ring
it's still a band of gold
it was my grandads Cignet ring
well that's what I've been told!
A colliery man; a musical man
he played in the colliery band
so happy am I to know that I
have his gold on my left hand!
So...
Gold - lucky? Maybe not!
my ring-finger is still in pain
at least I have what's left of my ring
and didn't
loose it
down a drain
...and I've still got my ring - repurposed
wrapped around a golden chain
