I do not have a strong desire for power

Neither have I felt joy when I was empowered

All I aspire for is a simple life to live

Where I have less to take and more to give

I have no dreams to fly so high

Nor wasting time, do I simply lie

I enjoy living close to the ground

With my body and mind, both sound

I do not have a desire to be wealthy

I derive joy, so long I am healthy

Happiness depends on how we think

Desires create a plethora of pain for us to sink

I have no desire to drive expensive cars

Branded cars do not reach us to stars

So long we have something to drive

Heart filled with happiness, I can thrive.

I do not have craving for tasty food

Any food that satisfies hunger is good

Experiences taught me lessons since childhood

Yet many things to learn, while, little I understood
