easy love –

by jhon baker

for Kara

 

my love

my wife

eleven years and more

 

we keep the lawn trimmed

without concern

weeds grow in the flower garden

and we

still without concern

 

dishes pile in the sink

and coffee spills on the linoleum

but no concern

 

we love

in love

no concern

 

easy love

beautiful love

no concern

 

– Hoc Scripsi

 

Kara, my baby, my love,

I miss you so much that my heart beats irregular.

my body feels wrapped in plastic.

I long and in longing feel misplaced.

every moment away I realize our love immeasurable.

– your melancholy man

    Hey Jhon! Really nice. Comfortable love is the best love.
    Every once in a while, I read one of your poems and hear them like they were song lyrics. Do you ever write stuff that is intended to be lyrics?
