This Is Just To Say Sweetie

The dull notes
are best
post-it on
the counter

from my
wife "Good morning please
vacuum
the carpet

Love, Lisa"
I love these letters
so sweet
and so warm.

This is just to say, sweetie, that I had no idea how true that William Carlos Williams poem was until I got married. The most mundane notes from my wife are better than anything I've ever read in the The Odyssey.
