Somebody lost a wedding ring
at Walmart tonight.
I know, because I heard it on the police scanner.
It's my favorite form of free entertainment -
must be a small town Southern thing, because people here
laugh about it.
Eight years ago tonight, I found a wedding ring.
It was stormy and ice cold
but you saw an evening rainbow,
right over the church.
You slid the ring on my finger
with the confidence that
was solid in my eyes.
We were so sure.
I hope that ring at Walmart
is recovered -
should it be as special
as mine,
because we are still
...so sure.
