I count not that day wasted
When some quiet road I wend,
Or see a lovely sunrise,
Or come upon a friend.
I count not that day wasted
When care is put away,
And I throw off the trammels
And clinging of the clay.
I count not that day wasted
When, as such things are wrought,
I shape an aspiration
Or a compelling thought.
I count not that day wasted
When with an eager eye
I look up from the dust trail
And contemplate the sky.
Clarence Edwin Flynn
評價
當我漫步在那寧靜的路上
或看見美麗的朝陽
或邂逅了一位朋友,
我不以為那是荒廢的一天。
當憂慮消失
而我擺脫肉體的
束縛和糾纏時
我不以為那是荒廢的一天。
當我塑造了一個抱負
或一個強而有力的思想
而這些事物已實現時
我不以為那是荒廢的一天。
當我以著熱切的眼光
從塵土飛揚的小徑
凝望到無際的長空時
我不以為那是荒廢的一天。
