Sharing a poem with our readers...
An Entrapment
My love, I have tried with all my being
to grasp a form comparable to thine own,
but nothing seems worthy;
I know now why Shakespeare could not
compare his love to a summer’s day.
It would be a crime to denounce the beauty
of such a creature as thee,
to simply cast away the precision
God had placed in forging you.
Each facet of your being
whether it physical or spiritual
is an ensnarement
from which there is no release.
But I do not wish release.
I wish to stay entrapped forever.
With you for all eternity.
Our hearts, always as one.
- Anthony Kolos -

Rings bring you closer together...
A signet ring is an engraved ring. It is also called seal ring. A seal is an impression affixed or printed upon to a document or any other object to represent an authentication.
The material often used is Agate. Banded or carnelian agate like sardonyx is especially used and the banding makes the impact opposed with the ground.
Metal can also be cast in signet rings - these are cheaper but weaker. The wearing of these rings is a primitive tradition not only among European nobles but also to other cultures.
The signet ring is normally worn on the small finger of the left or right hand and can be worn facing toward or facing upward the palm.
Facing toward the palm at times indicate the status of the person.
The signet ring can also be regarded as a symbol of one's power.
Signet rings are also being used as membership or souvenir symbols. As such they are consigned to bring a sense of tradition, loyalty and association to universities, schools, organizations and clubs by means of their respective rings.
They can be customarily designed and can be developed with your own emblem, logo or crest. There are a lot of ring companies that produces wide arrays of signet ring patterns for both men and women. They are made of sterling silver, two-toned sterling silver or gold and 9ct solid gold. Creation and design can be made to any size or style.
It could bring you and your lover together!
