N Renner
The Ring
I’ve seen her
I’ve seen her with you and she looks amazing
she is one of those women
that wears a dress to the food market
with nude pumps
her hair looks perfect and shiny
all the time
and her blue eyes
sparkle
compared to my plain brown
she has two pairs of earrings
for each outfit
just in case
and so you know
while you’re sneaking off
to meet her at that bistro
I’m pawning the ring for double
what you paid for it
and spending the money
on that boat you always wanted

Bio:N Renner began writing shortly after her father died when she was eight years old. What started out as rhyming lines about rice and her nephew Bryce, soon turned into life stories in a few stanzas. Still writing in a dark corner, N resides in Utah with her husband, two daughters, and a tortoise.
