Very true, and very touching. Very similar to a simple poem, (one of my favs), written by W.H Davies, 50 something years ago, and holds true, as every year passes. Poem mentioned is ‘Leisure’.

Absolutely! Leisure has long been one of my treasured poems. One of those you learn as a kid and think is a simple and sweet poem.. and as one gets older, the meaning of the lines really starts to sinks in..

There’s a verse in it that particularly stands out for me, for the visual imagery it conjures —

No time to see, in broad daylight,
Streams full of stars, like skies at night.

Ah, memories..
