I am a simple being
I ask for no riches or no acclaim
Let me live my life under a shady tree
Watch the clouds wander away with a pen in my hand
I have simple demands
I want no fame or no fortune
A dash of love, a dollop of comfort
Makes the pudding of my life complete
No luxuries, no castles
An old, rusty shack I take
But give me, my God
Pitter-patter of rain.
The wisdom to let go
The ability to abandon worry
I need not the fancy automobile
When it is my mind, all I ought to conquer

I can hear you saying these words. Lovely, heartfelt.
Thank you, my fellow writer in crime.
