I want to tell you — 1 day ago
about her laugh.
But first I must
tell you this:
My sister-in-law
told me today about
her friend in Queensland.
Lo, she said to me,
my friend sounds just
like Jonesy.
Is she a speech
pathologist, I spake
thusly.
No. She said.
But this was really
about Jonesy’s laugh:
It rings like clear
exultant shouts from
high-heartbeat activity
at altitude resounding
from pure icefields.
..and this is how I
want to tell you
about her laughter:
It’s clear, exultant
and best heard in a
low place because it
will take you higher.
All this because..
Olive Jonesy!
