Leisure (by William Henry 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 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 is if, full of care,
We have no time to stand and stare.
while you're ahead... 
Very fitting Monica. Thank you so very kindly for sharing that wonderful reminder of what we should try and do. Along with everything else. Moderation my dear girl.
Have a most lovely holiday season and wishing you and your family a most splendid new year.
