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 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.

pls mark me as brainliest

also follow me I will surely follow u back

Poem leisure wrote by W.H DAVIS

  • The Leisure by W.H. Davies is a veritably simple and short poem published in 1911. The poem carries a deep theme of the robotic life of an ultramodern man.
  • The simplicity and beauty of the poem give compendiums an idea that how simple effects have a great influence on the life of a person. How people miss the simple functions of the natural world and engage in robotic life.
  • The robotic and busy routine has spoiled the peace of ultramodern man. The minstrel prefers creatures who enjoy natural beauty but ultramodern man has no time to look at natural beauty.

       The poem "Leisure"

       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.
