Life - 'By Kimmy'

Life - 'by Kimmy' Good morning Love, my gift since dawn, When I awoke to find you gone From treasured bed where laid my head All through the night until first light. Awake I follow you to couch in living room, Voice faint perfume, "I couldn't sleep, my rest not deep! Come stay with me?" I lift your feet across my lap Recover you, "Please let me nap a little while!" I smile, hold foot, "Yes," hear sleep's breath an hour or so. What rest! (Imagine glow of love I feel?) May life be so until I die, God! What a high! To know you care, that you are there. Life's pictures of 'hair' client's joy, (1) 'by Kimmy!' that I share her with, our poetry, the stuff of myth! Brian Johnston 11th of June, 2018 Poet's Notes: (1) Kimmy owns a hair salon she can walk to from our house, and it is a job she loves. It's not surprising that most patrons love her back. It's a five-star place called 'Kimmy's Bliss!'
