Simple
(Inspirational Poems)
What would you wish for
If wishes were real?
To shed hope amongst the people
and this world to heal
Give dreams to all believers
and light every day
Guide those, who have forgotten
and show them the way.
Forget about possessions
As they implant greed
Could be something just as simple
As a tree, a plant or seed
To give hope, to nourish and to show
That with a tender love
A garden will surely grow.
It is the same with humans
we really need to see
That beauty from within
is purest in majesty
The outside will age and fade
and forever be no more
Our heart it gathers love
and inside it will store
The meaning of life
and how we need to live
To share and to teach
to love and always give
The trappings of existence
can often bring us pain
Too much in the wanting
with nothing to be gained.
Will leave us feeling empty
and ultimately all alone
If we are left misguided
and never really shown
That what we seek
is in our heart
And all we need to do
is silently play our part.
Simple is better for all to see
Simple is as clear as charity
Six little letters form the word
To help us hear, and to be heard.
“I wish that life was simple” I have often said
These words that are caught within my head
But simple will not happen with greed and hate
We have to begin to change, before it is too late.
