I reread this poem this week – it’s a great reminder to stop and enjoy the moment. I hope you find time this Easter to relax and enjoy this beautiful part of the world we are blessed to live in.
 
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 if, full of care,
We have no time to stand and stare.
 
Happy Easter Everyone!
 
Tara Penny
Principal
