Here it is, at long last
Product of two month's craftsmanship
Forged in sterling silver
Enthroned on a backdrop of Washington blue jade
Emblazoned with the icon of Rockosophy
The signet ring from AU Cornerstone
To be worn on the right hand of a writer's hand
Smothered in filth amid toils of biology
An insignia to be impressed in melted wax
In an age of tacit malcontent
Alongside the immediacy of instant messages
The often overlooked letter writing arts
Watch now, merry rockosophers of the interwebs!
In the time of coronavirual zoonotic disease
When leaving the sanctioned protection of the home may be tantamount
To issuing death upon neighboring octogenarians
Might we share of ourselves the finesse of an ancient signature
This pen bleeds out pages of a novel still in the fetal stages
Outgoing mailboxes pregnant with hopeful letters to friends and family
Sealed with an echo to times when turkey feathers were whittled down
Pointed shaved to keep from tickling the scribe's nose as they dabbled in holy writ
Talisman of one blogger's wish
That her framily know all are held in the seal of
Birds, Rocks, and Bliss.
With love & nothing else,
Rock Rat
