Dopey
always my favorite of the Seven Dwarves,
But
lately I’ve been thinking more and more about Doc
And
how he took care of everyone without lifting a hammer
Katie
broke all of the rules when she appeared on the scene with her dimples and
diplomatic swing
Pushing
back on time is a fool’s errand, but I signed up to be a fool and that will be
my task until all of the diamonds turn back into coal
Leo
my favorite actor until he and Kate got swept away by the Titanic
Are
you a trailblazer or trail mix?
I’ll
never forget when my dad would make me a tin roof sundae
Spanish
peanuts are just something you must experience once in this life
Katie
always knows how to bring you back into the fold
She
does it with the gentleness of a fawn and the ferocity of the most devoted Bob
Dylan fan
She
won’t point out your missteps, but will make damn sure you know when you’ve
overstepped
I
sometimes catch myself whistling while I work. Other times I look up only to
discover I’ve wandered into another graveyard or Starbucks
“Love
Sick” in the naked night I’m quite certain the window shades are mocking me and
the mock turtles will have something to say about it
You
cradled me in your heart from the very first time we met on FB and the
impression you make only deepens and becomes more transformative in scope
