The rain descends
The sun glows
The wind blows
The water drifts
Flowers grow
Clouds glide through the sky
Why can’t we humans be more simple?
Like the rain
Like the sun
Or like the wind and water
Flowers and clouds
I hope we could be simpler
Like the flowers
Growing gracefully
And lovely
But we humans do have our simple moments
But we don’t have a lot of them.
