(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 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.

Do we really have the time to marvel this beauty?

the one who can no longer marvel is as good as dead.
that's a lovely pic!
It would not be worth living if we didnt marvel, and not just in spare time. :)
Mystic Rose - Very rightly said!
Jade tara - With our busy lives, we've forgotten to admire the natural beauty surrounding us.
Its life.........And its we who have decided to live in that way..
