Leisure - A Life Changing Poem by William Henry Davies | Read by Simerjeet Singh

Leisure - A Life Changing Poem by William Henry Davies | Read by Simerjeet Singh

Our next piece in the Poetry That Inspires series is titled "Leisure" by William Henry Davies. This poem is a beautiful reminder of the importance of appreciating the small things in life. It inspires us to stop and reflect on the present moment to enjoy it fully – a feat hard to accomplish in our hyperconnected, hypercompetitive modern world. Or in the poet’s own words – “A poor life this if, full of care, We have no time to stand and stare.” Remember – There is no glory in burnout. And Redbull does not give you wings ;) Hope you all have a great week ahead. Regards, TeamSJS 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 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.

Good Timber - Powerful Life Poetry on Overcoming Adversity by Douglas Malloch | Simerjeet Singh

Good Timber - Powerful Life Poetry on Overcoming Adversity by Douglas Malloch | Simerjeet Singh

“Good timber does not grow with ease, The stronger wind, the stronger trees…” Douglas Malloch known as the "Lumbermen's Poet," compares solid people to good timber in this famous inspirational poem. This poem talks about how the best things in life are not easy to get, but they are worth the struggle. Simerjeet Singh, through this rendition, gives a sense of how a tough and strong person is created through struggles and hardships. It is only through overcoming adversity we discover what we are truly capable of and unleash our true potential. Have a great week ahead and remember to “Grow through what you go through” in life. Regards, TeamSJS Good Timber The tree that never had to fight For sun and sky and air and light, But stood out in the open plain And always got its share of rain, Never became a forest king But lived and died a scrubby thing. The man who never had to toil To gain and farm his patch of soil, Who never had to win his share Of sun and sky and light and air, Never became a manly man But lived and died as he began. Good timber does not grow with ease, The stronger wind, the stronger trees, The further sky, the greater length, The more the storm, the more the strength. By sun and cold, by rain and snow, In trees and men good timbers grow. Where thickest lies the forest growth We find the patriarchs of both. And they hold counsel with the stars Whose broken branches show the scars Of many winds and much of strife. This is the common law of life.
