Simple Things

Cell phones and computers;
cars and TV screens.
How about the simple things
like grass stains on your jeans.
Sunny day at the hands
of anyone who pleases.
Free and fun and full of life,
filled with calming breezes.
Strolling to the ocean side;
Listen—waves are crashing.
Hear them all roll into shore
like little children splashing.
Distantly, the sun bows down.
Pleasant waves start clapping.
Rising in the distance
the moon comes out of napping.
Cheerful crickets singing
as happy as can be.
Natural music to your ears
as you smile silently.
Soft smell of salt water.
Reminiscing of past years.
Memories forever cherished
as joy forms blissful tears.
Humid night as dew drops down
blending with those tears.
To a long life of satisfaction
A toast of many cheers.
Curvy voyage of a lifetime.
Every life to be revered.
Noise and sight and smells all are
simple things which we have here.
