The Tale of Two Rings

*** Editor’s Note:  I posted the correct answers under each picture.  Good guesses, everyone!  Thanks for playing along, guys!  ***

This is the tale of two rings,

Both shiny, wonderful things.

To be worn on the hand

Of the lady of the land.

So she could show off some bling.

Yet one of these rings was a fake,

An important distinction to make.

The fake ring was bought

Years prior for naught

So the girl could imagine her fate.

Then imagine her shock and surprise,

When a real ring was brought before her eyes

By the love of her life

A guy twice as nice

Who wanted them to share their lives.

The real ring was nearly the one

As the fake she had bought just for fun!

Exactly what she would have picked–

That’s how much she and the groom clicked–

That he knew it was the most perfect one.

(Real ring)

Fast forward almost two years

The wedding is just about here!

In goes her ring

To get shined up and things,

And out comes the fake to stay clear.

So what’s the lesson that can be learned?

Don’t let your eyesight fool your turn!

Which one is fake?

It’s your distinction to make

***So, can you tell which one is fake and which one is real?  There is more than one photo of the fake ring and the real ring on this page.  10 points to anyone who guesses correctly, haha!
