Favorite Quote:
An old man told his grandson, "There is a fight between two wolves inside of us. One is bad-- it is lust, pried, and lies. The other is good-- love, caring and humility." The boy thought for a moment and asked, "Which one wins?" "The one you feed."

Your lips, a prelude:
a softened lullaby;
a lone violin song
over white noise quiet.

Your voice, a melody:
a sweetened movement shy;
a chorus of allegro, decrescendo,
a vibrato of the senses.

Your words, a harmony:
a swift arco con amore;
a receding broken chord,
a crescendo rising tide.

Your smile, a coda:
a baroque dynamic sway;
a silent falsetto, dolce,
a fading glissando, grave.
