Why do I like simple poems?

Here is another poem from the elementary school, second grade textbook on the "Korean Lab" Web site.
눈 온 달밤 -------어효선

펑펑 쏟아지던
눈이 그치고

눈위에 보름달이
솟았습니다.

하얀 눈 위에
하얀 달빛.

낮보다도 더 환한
눈 온 달밤.

A Snowy Night ------ by Eoh Hyo-seon

A heavy snow has fallen,
A full moon soars above it.
White moonlight on white snow.
Even brighter than the day
This snowy, moonlit night.
