The Way of Simplicity

In a world of chaos, clutter, and noise,
Simplicity whispers with gentle poise.
A path less traveled, yet clear and true,
Inviting calm in all we do.

Strip away the excess, the needless things,
Find joy in what true contentment brings.
A life uncluttered, a mind at peace,
Where worries fade and tensions cease.

Embrace the beauty of empty space,
The quiet power of a slower pace.
In minimalism, find release,
As burdens lift with sweet decrease.

A cup of tea, a good book’s page,
Simple pleasures that assuage
The constant urge for more and more,
Revealing what’s worth living for.

Nature teaches this ancient art,
A flower blooms with simple start.
The mighty oak from acorn small,
Reminds us greatness needn’t sprawl.

In relationships, let truth shine through,
Honest words, both kind and few.
For in simplicity, love grows strong,
Unburdened by pretense or wrong.

Seek not the complex to impress,
But find your strength in less is more.
For wisdom often hides in plain,
And simple joys can soothe all pain.

So walk this path of clarity,
Embrace the way of simplicity.
In paring down, we truly rise,
And find life’s essence in disguise.

The simple life, a choice so bold,
More precious than mountains of gold.
For in this way, we come to see,
The beauty of simplicity.
