Simple things for simple people;
they live a simple life,
marry a simple wife and
have simple children and
leave a simple history for
the world, upon their death.
They stumble on a beautiful
today and trip on a wonderful
tomorrow; and prosper always.
They live out their lives
in peace and die quietly
without suffering and at ease.
They are like the rising
and setting of the sun
that comes and goes quietly.
They are the envy of
everyone that knows struggle,
war or pain: this I know.
