An Ode to Mid-aged Couples ^^


Thoughts on Mid-aged Couples
By Jean Lee



No more sparkly glares towards each other
    but sense of comfort and peace looking the same way
Lazy Sunday afternoon is the time to slother
     and it doesn’t matter as long as it is a perfect seque into another day


Crows’ feet and thinning hair might turn you off
     But those are the irreplaceable history of your life together
Burping and farting are still a big “no” tradeoff?
      Hmmm…..Good question. Let’s say we’re no friends of fair weather.


Finishing each other’s sentences, defending your better half’s weaknesses, smirking but not laughing at each other’s same old lame jokes, tired of pettifogging but realizing your loved one was right in hind sight. Your love hasn’t faded or jaded, but rather fully ripe. Hold on tight and get ready to go on another long journey with that someone who would be right next to you with such a familiar smile.
