Question

why don't people have time to stare as long as sheep and cows?? from the poem Leisure​

Answer 1

Answer:

In the poem 'Leisure' by W.H. Davies, the poet says,

"No time to stand beneath the boughs

And stare as long as sheep or cows."

Explanation:

The poet says so because he feels that humans get so indulged in their fast and busy lives that they forget to enjoy life's simple pleasures. They don't have the leisure time to stand and stare at the marvellous gifts of nature like sheeps and cows who stand long hours just staring at their surroundings. They observe the nature carefully and take in its beauty. If humans took out the time to do so then they would themselves be amazed and enchanted by the sights of nature.
