Simplicity

Glorious beauty that can't be made nor bought,
Splendid galore that isn't pressured nor taught,
The most amazing things in life, are always highly sought,
Ironically they are free, simple - forever hot
Of course I am talking about nature,
A contagious bug I caught.


A walk through the woods,
A stroll on the beach,
Climb a mountain,
It really isn't outta reach.

Open your eyes to the splendor that is all around,
Let it enthrall you, enlighten you,
Embodying joy abound,
You don't have to look further, it is easily found
Just put one foot in front of the other, on this solid ground
Invigorating all your senses,
Your whole being resonates peaceful sound.
