Give Me Pleasure

Give me the  pleasure  in simple things     

Such as sparrow's songs  and swallows'  wings .  

Let me not  wander  so far away , 

but be content to get through   today . 

 

 Give me pleasure to watch  flowers grow

or  take in the  sparkling stream  ,  its flow ,

Roam around  with   fireflies  in the dark

Near my  home or  a far away park .

 

 Give  me pleasure to trek to the  wood.

There,  in  silence and   in  peace I brood ;  

in   its  eerie buxom , dark and  deep

where  flowers, birds and tired  leaves sleep .

 

 Let's  live in  a farm   once in  a while ,

and  watch chubby children's happy smile.

To run   around bare-footed  and wild

and warble  songs  like a little child.

  

 Come friends , wander with me through my dreams !

Weave  the  magic moments  seams  by seams.

Across  green  meadows ,  away from  care ,

so serene  the scenes ,  so clean  the air.
