17 October 2022 Days— HOW DO WE SPEND OUR BRIGHT SUNSHINY DAYS?
‘Bright Sun Shiny Days’ so how do we spend them?
I quote a poem by 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 or 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 ..
I find the life of W. H. Davies interesting.
‘He was a Welsh poet and writer, who spent much of his life as a tramp or hobo in the United kingdom and the United States, yet became one of the most poplar poets of his time.’ (Wikipedia)
One could say that William Henry Davies (1871–1940) saw clearly and not only saw all obstacles in his way but was able to overcome them somewhat brilliantly.
It would seem to have been important to him to give himself space for reflection and to commune with nature.
