Simplicity

There is something to be gained, from having very little.
From simplifying your existence, in this world that is so brittle.
For you can never relive the moment that is now,
And the distractions that you hold steal and element of wow.

To find the awe within your mind and explore the ways it works,
Or absorb the colours that surround you and the wildlife that lurks,
These bring about belongings which will never break or fade,
For every time you truly be here, now, lasting memories are made.

When your materials are very little, you'll soon learn that you have plenty.
Simplicity can fill your heart, even when your wallet's empty.
Seek only this moment, seek discomfort, seek the truth,
Seek that which evokes the wonder of your youth.

All is not lost, when you merely go without possessions,
For you'll find the endless abundance, in simplicity and it's lessons.
