the simple life

To find the universal elements enough;
to find the air and the water exhilarating;
to be refreshed by a morning walk
or an evening saunter...

to be thrilled by the stars at night;
to be elated over a bird's nest
or a wildflower in spring -

these are some of the rewards of the simple life.
-John Burroughs (1837-1921)
American naturalist and essayist
