Leisure W.H. Davies What is this life if, full of care, We have no time to stand and stare? No time to stand beneath the boughs, And stare as long as sheep and cows. No time to see, when woods we pass, Where squirrels hide their nuts in grass. No time to see, in broad daylight, Streams 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 can Enrich that smile her eyes began. A poor life this if, full of care, We have no time to stand and stare. This is my first visit and I enjoyed it - will be back. This on my fridge door.

Leisure

W.H. Davies

What is this life if, full of care,
We have no time to stand and stare?
No time to stand beneath the boughs,
And stare as long as sheep and cows.
No time to see, when woods we pass,
Where squirrels hide their nuts in grass.
No time to see, in broad daylight,
Streams 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 can
Enrich that smile her eyes began.
A poor life this if, full of care,
We have no time to stand and stare.

This is my first visit and I enjoyed it – will be back.

We could all do with that reminder that we need to to slow down and chill out from time to time :-) Very peaceful.

I can easily see the appeal of fishing up to the point where you catch a fish - I love the tranquillity of it and so on. But if I actually caught a fish I'd panic! Fab picture, and post.

So important to take time out to just be - be in the moment, be thankful, be aware, be still, be quiet, just be. A very good reminder indeed, Uhdd.
