Best Simpler Poems

The windows in my mind have panes of green.
Through each, do I admire a different view.
In one I found a most in inspiring scene,
One day as I was casually peering through.
Beyond the grass and Rosa Moyesii,
With fairest skin and blazing copper hair,
She looked inside my...

Remembering simpler times through photography
When most entertainment was unelectrified,
Before the golden age of complex technology
Little was known of intricate human psychology.

Little was known of intricate human psychology,
Behaving ourselves was considered dignified.

Families quickly congregated when someone died

Snow-capped mountains in alpine glow.
Show I not individuals of plastic;
But verdure and sylvan where songbirds show....

Horse driven carriages and umbrellas in the snow
Grey pavement, oh so dark
Gloomy every morning when the men are on the go
So happy when we used to have dinner as a whole

Upon a spot I call my place
I gunned him with some mace

In madness he did flee
Into a hole I could not see

Christmas was always magical;
and still brings out the child in me.
Yet, I yearn for a simpler time
when innocence was still in bloom.

Although holidays come and go,
Christmas was always magical.
It's the season carolers' sing;

and townsfolk strung up...

In days of old
When Knights were bold
And wonder filled the sky;
A world more simple, 
Eyes that would twinkle
As life passed slowly by and by.

Faith that was strong,
Wrong was just wrong,
A worthy life the common aim.

Two friends that life separated for a Time
Who's reunitation can only be described as Sublime
On this day we are all fortunate to share in their bliss
From when they both say I do to their first married kiss

I remember the simpler days
when worries would just up and walk away
like the moon as she's crossing the sky
my eyes were so open wide

oh how I wish we could all just go there
where life was all about peace and good cheer
a coming together from one...

Take up crocheting or playing the fife!
Find pleasure in the simpler things of life
A walk in the woods can dissipate strife
Eschew arguing and merely being contrary
Find pleasure in the simpler things of life
Enjoyment...
