The Old Woman
As a white candle
In a holy place
So is the beauty
Of an aged face.
As the spent radiance
Of the winter sun
So is a woman
With her travail done.
Her brood gone from her
And her thoughts as still
As the waters
Under a ruined mill.

Joseph Campbell

Leisure
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 mouth can
Enrich that smile her eyes began
A poor life this if full of care
We have no time to stand and stare.

William Henry Davies

Light
The night has a thousand eyes,
And the day but one,
Yet the light of the bright world dies
With the dying sun.

The mind has a thousand eyes,
And the heart but one,
Yet the light of a whole life dies
When love is done.

F.W.Bourdillon
