I Don'T Need Much
I don’t need too much in life –
A book, a bench, a breeze,
Some friends and family for support,
A bagel and some cheese.
Of course, the extras add a lot –
The coffee, ice cream, beer,
The pension I can live on from
A long, fulfilled career.
As time goes by, I realize
There is less that I desire
And very little, therefore,
That I actually require.
