Loveless Marriage

The bees and the pear tree share more love than my marriage.

Oh why'd I get into that carriage with Joe Starks, whos bark is worse this his bite.

I spent more than 20 years with him and never put up no fight

he was my escape of a crule life we were to take flight as one

now the foes done he's to see our lawrd. Hes at rest oh  how it brings pain to my chest.

I envy the love of the bees and the pear tree.

Bees and the pear tree.

  1. I think the part where "his bark is worse than his bite" is the best.

  2. Do you believe that Janie deseved the "love" she thought she found with Jody or do you think she should have had a fairy tale ending?
