献诗一首：

Rewards of 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
