Simplicity

Easyis a trick trap door

Thatsinks to shadows dark and deep.

Andthough it may seem effortless

Itmakes a promise hard to keep.

 

Tobe the sum of many parts

Andknow the answer plain and pure

Thekeeper fills his goblet with

Enlightenmentto long endure.

 

Thus,the gift of foresight lends itself

Toshrewd sagacity and

Shredsthe bolts of burly cloth

Tothreads of soft simplicity.

 

Braveto dwell in austere comfort

Cloakedin spartan modesty,

Dancingnigh to innocence,

Sustainedby practicality.

 

Unpretentious,

Minimal,

Voidof complicated toil,

Feedsthe need to simplify,

Tosow and grow

Infertile soil.
