Your true love on any other day of Christmas might be just fine,
but don't be lulled by the lizards leaping, or those 4 falling birds, 3 drenched hens, 2 furry loves, and a Partridge in the Family.

No, watch out for that 5th Day, the one when He/She comes
“They call you #ring_giver, bringer of good fortune—but I see who you really are. Liar. Trickster. Thief.”
He leaned so close, she could smell brimstone. “You see much, child. What do you wish to do about it?”
Her smile was just as sharp as his. “I want you to teach me.”

my delirious vision

#vss365 King Eolfric the Miserly of Thambria was a #ring_giver but unlike neighbouring kingdoms, his warriors wore bronze arm rings not gold. Humiliated beyond measure, they killed him & elected a more generous king. His other nickname is ‘The 6 Month King’.
The first name on his list was the #ring_giver. A lot of Judicators had nicknames. Some came from their personalities. This one was due to how many surveillance rings the people unlucky enough to stand before him had received. People were intimidated by him. Jeff wasn't. #vss365
Give a ring once and you remain yourself.
Get divorced. Give another ring. And another.
You become a #ring_giver.
One who marries unsuccessfully, but keeps trying.
Are you difficult? Unlucky? How about optimistic or unrealistic?
Ask yourself these questions.

Bjorn was honored when Grunder and Grindar, his troll friends, asked him to be the #ring_giver at their wedding. He was less enthused when he learned troll wedding rings are made from loops of intestines gathered during the bachelor party after the ring_giver passes out. #vss365
Honor, loyalty
the #ring_giver honors those
who bravely ride out
and vanquishes the world's evil
a just cause all in his name.

daydream #ring_giver
but gifting that
worth more than gold
tributes of touch
of kisses and warmth
of finally feeling again

"Is thy tub of bath a prisoner of the dreaded #ring_giver of Filth? Is thy water closet held tightly in the throes of foul Stench of the Bell of Tacos? Try Mighty Merlock's Mess Demolisher, the only Room of Bath Cleanser with the power of Dark Magiks!"

"Forsooth, this is a fine inn. The savory victuals and selection of meads are pleasing to my senses."
"Um. Welcome to Steelbender."
"A fine name! I shall have this 'hamburger' and a side of rings of onion. What lusty wench is to be our #ring_giver?"
"Me, unfortunately."

“So,” said Ian, “this guy delivers to Marketing, never speaks to you but you get engaged, he starts delivering bouquets & messages?”
“That’s about it,” said Ava.
“If he were a #ring_giver, he’d be the sort to enslave, not reward.”
“He’d reward me for the right behaviour.” #vss365
Generations
If I ruled the world, I would be the #ring_giver, dropping golden bands onto every newborn head. As my children grew, the circlets would bind them to kindness, to love. In time, they would lift me from my throne with gentle hands and begin to fix all we have broken and burned. #vss365
the ring-giver is
the one who controls our life
when we just let go
sometimes we have some control
other times we just hang on

Rory had sought out the #Ring_Giver in order to procure a very special adornment. A one-time only deal that could give him an edge in his forthcoming battle against the Elder God.
Except the Ring Giver couldn’t give him a ring. He’d run out and needed supplies for more.

"What are you doing here?"
"I am the #Ring_Giver!"
"But... I already have a Best Man."
"No! I give the rings."
"You what?"
"When the white lady comes, I pull the ropes on the bells and give the rings."
"Oh, I see! Sorry. What's your name?"
"I be called Gollum, sir."

I accept no ring, except from my soul.
The one that I wear is given in love.
Surrendering in unison, I receive you.
