My Charm Bracelet
My shiny bracelet filled with charms
It jingle jangles on my arm
Each one a 14 carot gold
Each one has their story told
The tiny silouettes of both my boys
Reminding me of my constant joys
From Switzerland, a four leaf clover
A family trip, we all went over.
My loving dog with his big old paws
It’s the cutest thing that ever was
The mini whisk because I like to bake
Will I someday, get a golden cake?
My micro mini credit card, oh I like to spend
No, It doesn’t work, I tried it out my friend
A heart that sparkles, from the man I love
And because of baseball, a little lefty glove
A dimpled golf ball, heavy as hell
This one makes my muscles swell
A teeny weeny key to my car
And right next to it, a wee guitar.
A bottle of wine for the business we’re in
Its way too small to play “give it a spin”
A slender disk for when I broke 80
On the course one day, a lucky lady!
This bracelet will always be close to me
I’m going to wear it til I’m one hundred and three
And if I’m ever all alone or sad
Sliding on my bracelet, my heart will be glad.

Hey Linda!
This is a beautiful, really heartwarming piece. I have a beautiful gold chain, made whilst i was out in Greece, and it always reminds me of wonderful times. It really is about the memories behind these things, isnt it?
