The Beauty of Simplicity

I got one more poem from Alex Dias for all of you reading this; it’s really sweet! He wrote about the simplicity of life and the wonder it holds! Take a look!

The Beauty of Simplicity
By: Alex Dias

The evidence of beauty,
Hidden within simplicity,
The simple Creation explicitly,
Shamelessly wooing man carelessly.

Complexity is often considered better,
Bought out by the go-getters,
The rich, constant change of technology.
Yet, complexity lacking compared to biology.

We miss out on a day’s sunset,
The gentle speaking breeze, we forget,
The fluttering butterfly we ignore,
In an alive slumber, we snore.

We miss the softness of the grass,
Instead dwell in houses of glass,
Ignore the depth of other’s eyes,
Cataracts, stress, makes us sigh.

We worry about our next meal,
Forget the taste we feel,
We are over-ridden by money,
If we continue, we die lonely.
