Poem #116 Voice of Reason....

My mind in anxious turmoil, when we first met,
Composed and serene, you embraced an open mind;
Non partisan at the impasse, you deliberately chose neither side to abet,
Showing me that’s it’s ok to be different, one of a kind.

Always approachable, and  easy to talk to,
You choose to wear, a non judgmental hat;
Empathy and logical reason, you subscribe to,
Never hasty conclusions, no matter what the spat.

Deep conversations, over these recent years, 
Matching thoughts, as we found common ground;
Giving each other a chance, we became peers,
Leaving behind the din, from the world around.

Your words of encouragement, are never at dearth,
Empowering everyone around you, to grow;
While simple life keeps you happy and content,
Tranquility is the feeling that you imbue.

Quiet, composed, pragmatic and direct,
Understated elegance, your adornment every season;
The fact that you wonder if you are worthy of this epithet,
Clearly attests that you Always are a Voice of Reason!
