Analysis of Simplicity
I love to have simplicity
In all I do and see
Because the complicated ways
Can leave me in a daze.
A simple sunset in the sky
With lovely cloud shapes for each eye
Along with flowers in the yard
And wind through trees make it quite hard
To not find poetry out where
All nature and its music share
The sounds of life and movement for
The ones who stop and wait for more.
