| Wasted Hours written by William Henry Davies |
| From "The Hour of Magic", 1922 | Link to further information |
How many buds in this warm light
Have burst out laughing into leaves!
And shall a day like this be gone
Before I seek the wood that holds
The richest music known?
Too many times have nightingales
Wasted their passion on my sleep,
And brought repentence[1]soon;
But this one night I'll seek the woods,
The Nightingale and Moon.
- ↑ Davies wrote repentence not repentance
