The coarseness of your voice is like a lullaby

soothing my memories with laughter

Moxie mouthed and clever

Inviting polished to shine

Delivering the blast of your laughter without pause

falling upon me like tousled treasures

Then, a quiet prize

Poetry’s partner

embracing the depth with your beautiful grasp

To you, I am real

and I stand sturdier for it
