Bird sitting on a tree,
what do you desire,
some food,
a home,
warmth,
a partner,
for that probably is all in your simplicity,
and me, us, and we,
what do we want the human race,
some food,
a home,
warmth,
a partner,
a car,
a television,
every entertainment and useful appliance,
that we could ever wish to have, and see?
For every minute there is a new product to lust,
and want over,
products that we are told are the latest,
and the greatest things that we will ever need,
things that cause us to want, want, want,
and that cause such stress in the world,
and in global society,
and personally, sometimes I think to myself,
where is the happiness in humans lives these days,
for happiness has been curtailed by so many things,
that we are told that we need,
but I would rather be a bird sitting on a tree,
for birds have no restrictions on their time,
as do we humans,
for they are free to fly wherever they wish,
and free in their simplicity.
