Simple Beauty

Is there anything more beautiful

Than simplicity?

The simple beauty is ‘round about;

Gaze upon its greatness.

 

The leaf falling from tree to floor.

The joy in a child’s face over a frog

Newly discovered.

Icicles sparkling as sleigh bells ring.

Leaves coming back over the green

Carpets of spring.

 

Beavers build their lodges and dams,

Hawks soar through the air.

The little pleasures are simply the best

Such as the wind blowing through my

Beloved’s hair.

I, too, find nature and just the simple things to hold so much beauty. It's a rarity these days to find beauty in the simple things. Well done and thank you.

I agree. The free and simple gifts of beauty are the best. I agree with the description in your poem. Life should be simple. Enjoy life and tried not to damage and waste too much. Thank you for the excellent poetry.

Joshua this poem is so very cool. It carries a peaceful ribbon flowing on the breezes of each stanza. Nicely penned. Welcome to WC.
