1. I sought a healer in you,
But found instead a gifted poet.

2. His words flow like streams,
Weaving love and intimacy.

3. His mouth could cast a spell, should it chant,
Enchanting hearts with verse.

4. His thoughts shine bright,
Ever finding witty repartees.

5. He spins meaning into every theme,
Dispelling chill with warmth.

6. He gently draws out from the timid
Milk of trust from wary breasts.

7. He deftly solves each riddle,
Amazing you with his strangeness.

8. All he meets become his darlings,
Among people, loving friends.

9. If one day he favored us,
Creeping in slowly, slowly,

10. You'd find him distant again,
Now close, now far, capricious.

11. He seeks just three letters,
Our hearts’ elusive prize.
