Less Is More (more or less)

Less Is More (more or less)

A Poem by David O Whalen (O Haolin in Celtic)
"

Happiness is where the heart is.

"
If you don’t want much…
Than a little is a lot
Possessions can own you
Heart and soul

To most they’re a crutch
Needed likely as not
Yet are just another onus upon you
And they play a greedy role

For the more you want
The more you need
Pride a predatory creature
And once takes root
It becomes…a pernicious 
Insistent preacher

Less is more…
It’s carefree life
In many ways…
Devoid of strife
More oft than not
So if you want for less
Tis more truth than guess
That a little…Is a lot…
