Water Baby

Hotel Bathroom

::Part of my "I Myself Me" Self Portrait Collection::


A bit of fun this Friday,
I am reminded of the WH Davies Poem "Leisure", opening with these immortal lines

What is this life if, full of care,
We have no time to stand and stare?



the final 3 verses being.........

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

1/20s @ f5, ISO 800 full exif
