I couldn't find a solitary word
for someone who makes me happy

by doing nothing in particular.
So, I'll say your name.

Hello, Michael,
This is beautiful. There is a song somewhere in the back of my mind that speaks of a woman describing how she feels when her lover says her name. (Really wish I could remember) The receiving side of this. So lovely.
Thank you!

Hello Michael...

It would take a wise, smart woman to recognize that statement
as the most romantic line uttered in the last millennia.
