Gotta Simplify

Cluttered, Psychologically cluttered
With material objects in our lives
Chaotic moments. restless souls
Mental clarity a thing of the past
Elusive, unattainable, won't last

Universal law, ancient and true
We've been told get rid of old
Make room for blessings new
We all know, practiced only by few
Gotta have space for more blessings to flow!

Take a tour in my closet full of clothes
Trousers a plenty; tops too many
You said haven't worn for a year? Bin it baby!
Or at least hit the road to nearby Salvation Army
Be a blessing to others, let it flow lavishly!

it sure makes someone grateful
that what cost a hand and a leg
now is in possession. . I know
I bought a shirt that spell. . RICH
a linen red shirt and it fits!

someone is blessing you now. . .
oh I got it for $5 bucks! ! !
could have been 150 as far as I know

Welcome ti my world my friend. From a 3,000, square foot house with a closet as big as my bedroom to a little room at my daughter's house. I've donated more than 100 pairs of shoes, As when my children had garage sales nobody bought them because they're size 5.

What a relief my friend. And don't shop at all anymore as I retired now and no need to dress up anymore.

What a great poem my friend.

hi oriental,
your poem reminds me of the adage
"Live simply so that others may simply live"

i like your reference to psychologicial clutter;
we're not menat to drown out our psyche, our soul,
with any thing
