A Metaphor

My grandmother has a jewelry box where she keeps a special ring for each of her granddaughters.


She tells me the story of mine, which is hope.
It breathtaking.  Captivating.
The ring.
The story of the ring.

But I know it means death, before I wear its past.

So her jewelry box, is really Pandora's.
