Simple Things

Morning sun lights up the sky Feel the warm radiance upon your face Open your arms toward the azure sky Drift away on silver lined clouds Take a deep breath of fresh air let it infuse your sense of smell Open your eyes to the joys of nature Feel the soft earth beneath your feet Hear the whispers of the earth Everything we have is borrowed Once we leave we leave with nothing what we worked hard to achieve all will be left behind Enjoy the simplistic things of life
