 THE TRAVELING LIFELONG BUSH POET

If We Never Always Wanted More


Monkey swinging so very high
With perfection and such ease~
In a style all of his own
Away up there within the trees~
Tiger walking through jungle thick
So large and heavy as it goes~
But walks with the silence of a feather
And when its around nobody knows~
Eagle flying away up within the sky
Not hardly moving a feather at all~
Floating upon a high free breeze
Not a worry about fearing of a fall~
Largest whale within the sea
So ever massive in it;s size~
Gliding there slowly without effort
Right then before my eyes~
All doing what they naturally do
With natural ease and motions
If life for us human souls could be
As relaxing as their natural emotions~
We all could resemble these natural things
Way more if we like they
Were happy with what we have right now
Instead of always wanting more every day~
We spend so much time planning up the line
When we could be naturally enjoying our right now~
But always wanting better and wanting more
Takes up almost all our time some how~
