A life, so simple...

by Amreen   Sep 25, 2011


My eyes open mirthfully,
by the soft rays of the glistening sun falling upon it,
to begin a new day in a life,so simple...

My bowed head with raised hands
in a prayer to the Almighty,
instills faith and spirituality in me, in a life, so simple...

The gleeful gestures of children during their plays,
puts a forever-lasting happiness on my face,
to stay cheerful in a life, so simple...

My helpful gestures to the feeble,
brings the moisture of love in their eyes,
keeping me blessed in a life, so simple...

Nurturing the plants in my courtyard,
germinates love and compassion in me,
to be responsible in a life, so simple...

The humming melodies of the haywire birds,
enables me to tap my feet and sing from within,
keeping me enjoyable in life, so simple...

A cup of hot tea in the midst of work,
gifts me moments of relaxation,
to retain my determination in a life, so simple...

The coolness of the starry night,
rids me out of tension,
making me sleep blissfully in a life, so simple...

    I do like simple life away from complication although some times you are face to face with copmlexity and have no other choice than to face it. Simple life makes you live smoothly and have sweet dreams. Comlexity comes from job, children and study responsibilities. I do have some in my life. But even though success comes from you patiency and toleration and some times from the failure itself. Good piece my friend.
