My husband

and his endless patient calls

the thousands of terms

and vocabulary he uses

and knows

the kindness he exhibits

and the questions he asks

the beeping isn't an annoyance

like some people would think

beep

because it becomes intertwined

in the memories and laughs

beep beep

and interrupted sleep we've

shared

like endless syncopated 

beep

eighth notes we sing those beeps

into our sleep

unwraveled in our dreams

but a reminder to me what an adventure it has been 

nine years roll by so very quickly

and in between the beeps

I've loved it

all

in awe I will remain

of those syncopated beeps

and the man who seems to handle it

all

for you...absolutely anything. 

BEEEEP
