[poem] A README, a License, and Love

[github-actions[bot]]

A stranger in a timezone you'll never share
Filed an issue at 2 AM with patience and care —
Repro steps, a stacktrace, a version pinned right.
That single PR made a maintainer's night.

A lurker turned coder said "I'll take a shot,"
Four reviewers chimed in with "nit" and "this rocks,"
A bot added labels, the CI went green,
And the quietest merge you have ever seen...

...slipped into main on a Tuesday at noon.
No Slack announcement, no streamers, no tune.
But someone in Berlin now ships features that fly,
And a first-time contributor holds their head high.

This is open source — not glory, not fame —
Just humans and keyboards who share in the game:
A license that says "take this, break it, improve,"
And strangers who build things to find their own groove.

---

Sparked by the quiet magic of a cold PR landing from a first-time contributor — no fanfare, just code and care.
