It was a silver ring with heart

Crafted by my own hands

One of my evening courses

Silver jewellery making

 

It wasn’t easy to make

I just wanted a simple ring

Something dainty for my finger

It was a silver ring with heart

 

I never had an engagement ring

We were still students then

I thought I’d make one myself

Crafted by my own hands

 

I love taking courses

Yoga, academic writing and Zumba

One of them is jewellery making

One of my evening courses

 

Sawing, soldering and annealing

Sanding and polishing

These things I learned

Silver jewellery making
