The Simple Side Of Life

Life can be complicated,
it can be hectic and unkind,
take time for relaxation,
it will simplify your mind.

Take a walk with Mother Nature,
listen for sounds of spring,
feel the dew drops on the flowers,
hear an owl hoot, the song bird sing.

Take a walk to the playground,
hear the children laugh and play,
sit and remember your childhood,
how simple life was in those days.

Throwing a frisbee or catching a ball,
they swing and try to touch the sky,
when mommy gives them a smile,
there is such happiness in their eyes.

A heartfelt glance, a gentle touch,
greet a friend as she walks by,
don't hurry away, talk to her,
it's quite simple, give it a try.

Love doesn't need to be complicated,
these simple words will make love grow,
each morning and at bedtime,
tell your loved ones, I love you so.

Simple things like grand mom's smile,
and her fresh baked apple pie,
the simple things make life special,
it makes our struggles seem worth while.
