In a world full of complexity,
I am attracted to simplicity.
In a room full of learned and wise,
I gravitate towards those without guise.
Amidst expensive luxuries and pleasures,
Priceless experiences are an ultimate treasure.
True and lasting happiness is not in any material possession,
Is life’s everlasting and enduring lesson.
Real Joy lies in ardently pursuing interests and passion,
Remedy for all times, seasons and changing fashion.
Work without thought of reward,
Smile without guard,
Spontaneity is not hard.
Is ancient wisdom from seer and bard.
Knowing should not mean showing,
True talent is humble and flowing,
Sincerity needs no blowing,
Authenticity is in itself glowing.
