Summary: Sometimes those pricey Singing Rings have to work hard to secure themselves a buyer ...
Persuasion
ooo
When you seek out the ring
Jewel bright and sparkling
To forever linger
On your sweetheart's finger
Make me your selection
For I am perfection!
So don't fuss and fidget
Let me clasp her digit.
ooo
I exist to aid a beau
woo the lady he loves so
ooo
Costly and inflated
Highly over-rated!
So the thought may strike you
But it's simply not true!
I am the best measure
To secure the treasure
That your heart has yearned for
These past months, if not more.
ooo
Three thousand Wendells is cheap
Twice that and I'm yours to keep!
ooo
I'm at your disposal
For the big proposal
When you want her to say
She'll be your fiancée
I will help you charm her
Dazzle and disarm her
Soon she will be your wife
For the rest of your life
ooo
Through good and bad, calm or fraught
Whether you like it or not ...
ooo
Wouldn't I look dinky
Perched upon her pinky?
Quite bizarre yet handsome
Sparkling on her left thumb
Or confound and perplex
Slip me on her index!
Wherever I settle
I shall prove my mettle
ooo
This Ring is at your command
I will secure you her hand!
ooo
So, potential buyer
If your one desire
Is your love to possess
I can make her say 'Yes!'
Mere gold cannot compare
With a maiden so fair!
Buy me now and depart
We must capture her heart
ooo
And once we accomplish this
live ever after in bliss!
ooo

My first shot at a 10th Kingdom fic (or song, even). Feedback really would be appreciated!
