I was happy,
TV nightly,
As a family,
Simple pleasures,
"Any Umbrellas",
Family holidays,
I was happy,
Perhaps the world was happy,
Or happier at least.
For those for whom life is a waste
simple pleasures lose their taste
Dreams and butterflies never chased
their Rubicon crossed in criminal haste
moonglow on your shoulder
a sunray on your cheek
such simple pleasures
are what make life
marvelous
fabulous
glorious
joyous

A simple pleasure is all I desire,
Like sitting in front of a fire.
Or reading a book
Inside a nook,
Possibly even drinking coffee
With a tad bit of toffee.
Those are simple pleasures to me.
FRAGMENTS 1
Echoes in the dark
Call at odd moments
As if to inspire
New surge of courage
As fear tramples in the dust
Even simple pleasures
Of familiar good intentions
Yet all is not lost
In conscious awareness

It is better to be a pauper in paradise
Than a hero in chaos,
For a pauper in paradise can still
Partake in plentiful simple pleasures,
Yet a hero in chaos is neither free
From untimely death nor above the
Corrosive attrition that fear begets.

I’m but a man of meager means
A man of simple pleasures
Tho’ deep endowed with eager dreams
I enjoy life’s simple treasures
My days I know are numbered now
And so are minutely measured
So that I might remain
A man it seems (and bourne by dreams)
A man of meager means
And simple pleasures
With each life
Comes mouldable clay
Make it, break it
Or do okay
With each day comes
A slice of joy
Simple pleasures
Make our stay
With each light
Comes a shining beacon
That beckons wisps
To come its way
With each will
There is a way
We'll then do more
Than just okay
Dedicated to my father on Father's Day :)
Diamonds and gilded gold
What worth do pure gems hold sway as priceless treasures?
Souls are sold
A grand fortune
Cannot replace simple pleasures
Bar none
Soul kissed ~
Earthly measures
Blissed
Diamonds and gilded gold
Cannot replace simple pleasures
Blissed
Of simple pleasures
that I love the most
Topping the list
Tea and toast
It never fails to satisfy
In fact it hits the spot
I never scream for ice cream
It's seared bread and an Earl grey hot
Late at night or crack of dawn
all else except bacon makes me yawn
Now that's a trifecta I can get behind
Tea,toast,and bacon fully alligned
To pen a poem is to sing a song.
words take flight and soar
carrying aloft, enchanting thoughts
to soothe the weary soul.
Transporting others -
from their troubles
shifting gloom,
dark clouds away
To echo in their mind
Nature's beauty,
simple pleasures
there to find
A bird in flight
trees whispering
fireflies dancing in the dark
the beating of one's own heart.
I give into the simple pleasures
That I receive when you talk to me
Your simplest words mean the most
Your goofy actions make me smile
Though these are little things
That means the most to me
Any material object that you give
Will not match
What simple pleasures give
I love you more than the shining sun
I love you more than the replenishing rain
I love you more than life itself
Tasting a cup of hot chocolate and vanilla brew
Slumber in a cushioned and quilted mattress
Pleasures that rebound in a titillating sensation
Compared with receiving a lovable caress
Seeing the unexpected presence of a dear one
Smiling with your friends anecdote tales
Lend a helping hand without any interest
Memories that stay in your mind for decades

I have cut you with blades
and watched your blood fall to the floor
to make me feel better
I have allowed many unmentionables
to enter your territory
uncovered
for me
I have covered you in filth
for my simple pleasures
I have sent you against yourself
filling you with bottles of pills
meant to void me of pain
I have used you
and now I'm sorry
we are finally one in the same
Dear Me
Form:
In back home fields,
blanketed with nature.
Winds breeze silently spreads
over velvet flowers landscape.
Rustic reality settles within
my minds memories of childhood.
Crossing ponds of fragrance's dampness,
glowing upon simple pleasures of life.
A colorful world of beauty,
resting quietly within hidden mountains.
Gracing my soul with a sensual peace
one longs to feel again...In life.
Enjoy simple pleasures
Sun setting overhead
Hues of orange and red
Stunning beauty
Fishermen sit waiting
For a big fish to bite
Catch one with pure delight
Superb supper
Moon glints on still waters
Casts a silvery glow
Clouds create a shadow
Dark inky sky

Simple pleasures
We, although a small family of three,
keep longing for simple pleasures of life,
Now miss our usual adventurous spree
and land up losing to daily no good strife.
Just having a serene walk in the garden
or be it watching a good movie together,
Being naughty and then ask for a pardon
and win subtle caress of a mellow weather.

As if a blanket be specially placed
Upon the land so humbly graced.
A white so pure, so fresh, sublime,
A blessing, surely divine.
Steeples covered, as Christmas card,
Litter the landscape of England proud,
Tools down, the children play,
Simple pleasures embrace the day.
Sunshine glistens on twinkling ground,
Mesmerising magic all around,
This beauty which fulfils the soul
Is exquisitely a fresh snow fall.
Catching a butterfly
can give you immense pleasure
Watching rainbow in the sky -
the scene - you would love to treasure
A toddler's feet
can make you smile
A visage petite
relieves stress for a while
Reading a poetry
can elevate your soul
Sitting under a tree
can provide you console
All these simple pleasures
will not cost you too much
And if you can treasure
those will add a fairy touch

When I was young,in summer sun
the excitement of life,just begun,
hours seemed like days, and days
by brooklets,still,we lazed;
When I was young,in poverty
simple pleasures were had ,for free
improvisation was our key,
for sport,fishing or climbing tree;
When I was young,before tv
books and radio were for me,
putting a face to voice and place
the birth of creativity.
Frugal times,spent so close to home
sans shopping malls and telephone

Frugal times,spent so close to home
sans shopping malls and telephone
Down where the peach trees bloom in spring
Those lavender blossoms
Reminds me summer soon follows
With those taste treats awesome
Ahhh! Memories of those peaches
Emmitting fragrant scent
Soft delicate to touch fuzz skin
In ice cream tasty accent
Those long days of summer bring joy
Simple pleasures taste treat
A trip to the peach packing shed
Ice cream treat can't be beat

I don't need God today,
Just a pitcher of water
a couple of rays of lemon
chilled in the fridge
to heavenize
the lips.
Such a simple thing, a glass of chilled bliss.
No, I don't need God today, but tomorrow may be different.
Is it blasphemous to tell a simple truth?
For this little treasure chest
of simple pleasures that I sip.
Does it really make God pissed?
Tomorrow may very well be different
but for today God was trumped by a lemon.
Like a cocoon is to a butterfly;
You too shall blossom into great beauty.
Your simplicity is filled with inspiration.
You are breathtaking, much like the words of Shakespeare.
Life molded into delicate petals;
Infused with a heavenly aroma of light rain on a mid-July evening.
One of life’s great experiences is to capture the scent of you on a warm spring day wind.
You’re a symbol of passion, love, romance;
But you also symbolize the simple pleasures of life.
