To M

Murmurs of laughs filling the gaps-

of time and reality are his trademark.

How can I not wonder about what’s next?

Affability is something he easily conveys-

but don’t let that let you get carried away!

He can fence and entertain with a smile.

Run for your life if you aren’t sure-

about getting to know him up-close.

Like a wave he will carry you away.

Wanting more time and topics to talk-

about is inevitable when dealing with him.

This chatterbox is at home around him.

Analytic is his approach without-

the need to dominate the conversation.

He is a great listener and best friend.

Needless to say, he makes me smile-

even when life seems to be bleak.

He is pure sunshine on a rainy day!
