    Poem Commentary

    Take time to relax and sit back to observe the wonder of life - seperated from the stress and the strife

    Contentment


    I can see a beautiful flower and not have to remove it from its earthly bed

     

    I can gaze upon a tree and not have to climb it

     

    I can look at a field of grass and not have to make a path

     

    I can behold a magnificent mountain and not have to conquer it

     

     

    Some days I am content to just sit without a worry as I take in all of God’s beauty

     

    Today is one of those days...

    In science one tries to tell people, in such a way as to be understood by everyone, something that no one ever knew before. But in poetry, it's the exact opposite.

    Franz Kafka (1883-1924) Czech writer.
