"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 or cows.
No
time to see, in broad daylight
Streams
full of stars, like skies at night.
A
poor life this if, full of care,
We
have no time to stand and stare."
Wm.
Henry Davies (1871- 1940) abridged
