Simplicity in life, reduces stress Icicles hang upon the heart Of those who are plighted With desserts spelled backwards With no end in sight Choose simplicity in life As along those well-traveled roads You have to pass A Cadillac is no better than other cars Nor of people Gucci dressed A meal can be soup and sandwich You get what you need Add some fruit for dessert It is bound to fit what your food Allowance entails Living in the fast lane Doesn't have to be your fate Try to make a left turn And find saving Grace A small town, out of the way place Look for ease in living A calm home to come to At the end of the day Say Grace at the table Have room for Him in your heart

Last year I chose a 'word' for the year and that was Simplicity, so I loved this greatly. It's true. What I found appreciating the simple things of life did, was to raise a new level of appreciation; friendship, small gestures of kindness, eating well, loving well all came into focus. Sara, your poem is a great, simply beautiful, message for a complicated modern world, we should strive to hear it x (fav)
