The Dynamics of Simple Things.

It's the simple things that often remind
Of how beautiful life is, or can be
A pet. A gift. A smile. A hug.
Or whatever your muse might be.

A bird, boat, turtle or fish
A garden, or dog, mountain, or horse
Perhaps a tree - tattered and worn
Or a lotus, floating in the marsh.

The simple things that give us joy,
And cause the face to glow,
Make the heart to leap for joy
More than you'll ever know.
