Blog 25/52: Leisure

August 8, 2020 By Geeta

Blog 25/52

I want to share this simple yet strong poem with you…Leisure by W.H Davies,

What is life if, full of care, We have no time to stand and stare.

No time to stand beneath the boughsAnd stare as long as sheep or cows.

No time to see, when woods we pass,Where squirrels hide their nuts in grass.

No time to see, in broad daylight,Stream full of stars, like skies at night.

No time to turn at Beauty’s glance,And watch her feet, how they can dance.

No time to wait till her mouth canEnrich that smile her eyes began.

A poor life this if, full of care,We have no time to stand and stare.

I believe ‘Stand and Stare’ into oblivion is one of the best brain Gyms.
