Your laugh just as satisfying as the bells

Of your Hmong clothing

Your voice as serious as a symphony 

When you smile I can see the reflection

Of a young child with their favorite 

flavored sucker

Your eyes look like puddles little girls run 

to jump into 

Your hands guide us to new paths

And your feet to endless journeys

You will never make me prouder than you already have

Nyob Kuv Hlub Koj

And how you make me feel when we’re together
