Question:What are some of the things that the poet W.H. Davies would like to do in his leisure time?
Answer:
The speaker of W. H. Davies' poem, "Leisure," would like just to stand and stare at the things around him. He would like to watch cows and sheep and observe squirrels hiding nuts. He would like to muse on the stars in the night sky. He would also like to watch dancers and then carefully observe how they smile first with their mouth and then watch as that smile spreads to their eyes. He would like it if he could just stand, or perhaps by extension, sit and watch as life goes by filled with so many things to see and by extension again, hear.
Question:What can one see while passing through woods in the poem, "Leisure"?
Answer:
If there were enough time, one could see "squirrels hide their nuts in grass," but because there is no time, the exact answer to your question is nothing.
Question:What kind of poem is "Leisure", a lyric or a sonnet?
Answer:
Actually, a sonnet is usually also a lyric poem. This form in this poem might be considered an American or innovative sonnet. But likely the poet merely played out his thoughts in seven couplets and did not think of his poem as a sonnet.
Question:How does nature smile in W.H. Davies' poem, "Leisure"?
Answer:
Poetic observation might metaphorically compare the beautiful features of nature to a smile and the ugly ones to a frown. An odd question when applied to this poem that does not broach that issue. The "smile" mentioned in this poem is on the face of a dancing woman--not "nature" in general.
