#2 of Unimportant Verse About Important People

Resuscitating ancient coins in class, we learned,  
takes a toothbrush and olive oil.  
Slow, steady strokes across, around...  
soft bristles dislodging soil  
one speck at a time.  
But no one that day was nearly as blessed,  
seeing a coin shine through  
at the end, full relief brightly expressed,  
as I was to see you smile.
