A Modest Garden
Offer me the simple life... The minimalistic comfort... A two square meals...With a modest garden

Grant me the courage
To unclothe the wants
And ephemeral desires
To break from the chains
That bears me to the world
Offer me the simple life
The minimalistic comfort
A two square meals
With a modest garden
To grow and to rear
Hand me the tranquil life
A quiet cabin
Beside a stream
Of fresh water
In the pine woods
Pass me a library
Of thought provoking books
Carefully picked by readers
Books that challenge
The notions of existence
Give me a cozy niche
Beside a hearth
Where I can compose
And unwind
This torpedo of thoughts
And when my time is done
Cremate my body
Let the wind take me
Leave not a grave
In my memory
