With Gentle Prod, A Musing Touch Applied

  
With gentle prod, a musing touch applied,
Between a knowing nod and love’s reproach.  
Of how one’s days expressed with none disguised,  
Such tact, it is our method of approach.  
   
In what it means when reasonings debate,  
With gentle prod, a musing touch applied.  
A subtle wit infused, and then to wait  
For each our sentiment of love’s apprised.  
   
He knows what’s best, I hear it in his eyes,  
To hold my breath will only make me shake.  
With gentle prod, a musing touch applied,  
A page from life, and not just for my sake.  
   
His ethics have grown stronger everyday,  
From life’s abuse, and not because he’s tried. 
He’s made me laugh whenever I’m in pain,  
With gentle prod, a musing touch applied.
