A Simple Man and His Love
by Barry Clopton Lanier (Age: 52)
copyright 12-21-2003


Age Rating: 13 to 127

  A Simple Man and His Love
Picture Credits: By Lyle Berry

Some people live only for the future,
Some people live only for the fame;
Some live only just to play the game.

Some people search for the fountain of youth,
Some people search for simply, the truth.

Some people want it all, the gold, success, the largest diamond ring,
Some people you can never satisfy, even if you gave them everything.

Should I just be ignorant, maybe less cultured,
Unaware of lifes eventual truths;
My hopes maybe small, my dreams maybe obsolete.

Because heaven and earth and all I'll ever want,
Is that which I already have and cherish and cling to;
And that my dear is you.
