A Simple Man


My life isn’t complicated, I’m a simple man
Just living each day, the best that I can
I appreciate the simple things I see
For they mean everything to me

I don’t need a lot of money to make my day
A great song, a beautiful scene, and I’m okay
The sun shining down, clouds and sky so blue
At the end of a long hot day, taking off my shoe

I look forward to the rising sun
And the sunset when the day is done
The way the sun keeps the day bright
And the color of the flowers in its light

A bike ride through the park
Seeing the moonlight in the dark
The birds singing in the trees
Some popcorn with a slice of cheese

I don’t ask for much, and I try my best
I could have more, but do with less
I’m just happy to be exactly who I am
A laid back life of being A Simple Man

    I'm encouraged, bud, to know that there are other people like me out there. I sometimes feel that I'm swimming upstream; feeling like I don't fit in with the vast majority of people who don't seem to have a whole lot more on their minds than their brand new SUV, or there countryclub membership. This is me, to a tee! Fabulous write, my friend! Bravo!

    Awesome

    I really love this piece.. Showing who you really are is as beautiful as your writings.. My picture should show up now.. the fire fighter in the picture is my Honeybear. We took this picture way before I even noticed the feelings that were growing between us two..

    sounds like a song
    almost like the Beatles
    you are a man of Peace
    and that is A lot these days
    good for you Bub
    keep you chin up and look for those
    beautiful clouds you love to capture
    on your camera. You say it so well here
    you tale a piece of cheese and sing with the
    birds and call it a day.
