He is The Connoisseur of Good Things,

From sound bites –
to bits of life

Everything he is
he carves with intent in mind.

As an outsider looking in – I’m mesmerized by his stories –
his choices, his dreams – his perspective.

How beautiful it has been,
to meet one so steeped in senses.

Being in his presence,
is a secondhand high –

From the reflection of the collection of beauty
he holds inside.

I am excited to see what comes next for him –
And I am excited to see what comes next for me, in his presence.
