Poems (Cromwell)/Leisure
LEISURE
When I have nothing else to do,
When I am free, the hour kind,
I like to lift reflections from
The pool of my mind.
I'm thirsty, and I like to drink
A wisdom cool and clear:
Standing precautionary, shy,
As lion or as deer.
When I am free, the hour kind,
I like to lift reflections from
The pool of my mind.
I'm thirsty, and I like to drink
A wisdom cool and clear:
Standing precautionary, shy,
As lion or as deer.
