What Makes You Tick

Its the simple things in life that turn my wheels
a stroll over the moors, I don't need newsreels

The beauty of the full moon to my heart appeals
sounds of the night, I hear high pitched squeals

No its not money or houses or even posh meals
bored stiff listening to the fools and their spiels

Its the joy, the charm of mother nature appeals
that makes my blood race as I turn cartwheels

Its the simple things in life that turn my wheels 
a life of enjoyment,  full of love with no ordeals
