with your otherworldly peace
and expression
you sparkle in your simplicity
to charm
the angle at which you slant
your views
is like gazing upon a shimmering
pool of tranquility's light
you are philosopher/ sage
and humorous uncle delayed
you untell stories told
and wipe clean walls of slate
with an Ostrich size curiosity
you pit your intellect and education
against the masses
you praise without prompting
and admire with quiet grace
you inspire by example
and do not dicker to make
your case
I've read you off and on for a handful
of years
enjoyed the bilingual world
that you walk through
you are a poetic gem
a man who's works should be
read beginning to end
clearing one's way through...........
