SIMPLE


Keeping it simple my goal


Won’t make the effort

Won’t take decisions


This moment I won’t.


Two paths really are the ones

I’ll choose this, the plainest

Taking it oh so easy

Tired of flying high

Fish swimming in low tides

I observe and smile.

the fish swimming is a nice touch there at the end...the view can be just as nice from down below and you have so far less to fall...smiles.

oh, to be able to keep it simple, dear dulce! but for me the lesson i've not yet learned - simple was never the path i chose, rather the long hard and complicated one! thanks so much for showing us the simple path in such a beautiful way! ;)

A timely poem for me, Dulce, as I prepare to return to work after summer vacation. I overexerted myself last year, and I was a mess by the time the school year was over. I don't want to do that to myself again. I can't afford to... in fact. So, maybe I will cut and paste your little poem and carry it in my wallet so I can remind myself... because I know, dammit, that I will forget. ;-)

Lovely and simple... as you ever are, Sweetest!

Simplicity at it's best. Excellent my friend :)

i once read a quote that said that aiming high and not making it is way better than aiming low and not getting it. Well, I don't believe in that, because sometimes, aiming high just distresses us and leaves us tired and disappointed so e just give up, when we aim low, it's very encouraging to reach there and then, we decide on the next step. It's like a staircase, you can't leap from one floor to another, you
have to climb there step by step

This stirs the soul and moves the heart, Dulce. Refreshing, uplifting and very wise. Knowing one's path is the first step.

There's something to be said for simplicity...and the peace that comes with it. I'm leaning more and more towards it, but I'm not quite there yet, primita. :)

Keep It Simple: A way of life! Dulce, I was very unprepared to leave today on my nomadic adventure. And somehow, these words came to me: keep it Simple.

A good friend, sensing my stress today said to me, "You do not have to leave today--why not leave tomorrow?"

And so my day of minutes and hours turned itself into a time of peace, contentment, simplicity and love.

Today, those

As Always! Nice and Sweet

Hey I was not finished! Those fish swimming in low tide are looking at me, saying, Now THERE is an example of simplicity! or did they say "simpleton"--grin!?

Your message today is simple and apropos, and the picture says the same thing. Keep it Simple.

Maybe another "easy" one tomorrow, Sweeter Poet?

Thank you My Dear Lovely Friends for these sweet comments.

I am glad you can all relate to these words and that they help you take it easy, at least once in a while!
Sweet hugs and smiles.
