Prompt: List the people you admire and look to for advice
I seek out wisdom where it hides—
In memes, in books, in older guides.
A mum who reads my mood like lore,
A mate who’s botched it all before.
A teacher’s voice from years gone by,
Still echoing when stakes run high.
The stranger’s thread I chance to find
That calmly reconfigures mind.
But more than most, when things turn tight,
I look to her—my calm, my might.
My wife, who sees the signs I miss,
And answers panic with a kiss.
She doesn’t sugarcoat or stall—
She tells the truth and takes the call.
Her voice is home, a knowing shove,
That redefines both strength and love.
