24th MARCH 2019 ~ Changwon Naesumyon a.k.a NFRDI Eco Park is the place where one could just walk, sit and spend hours admiring the untouched beauty of mother earth. I was there a bit too early before the sakura got to bloom during its peak season. I bet it would look spectacular when the park would be covered bi the pink buds of the flowers. Guess I have to make a return trip some other time.
This place also looks awesome when autumn arrives and the leaves turn to their brown, red, orange and brown hues.
I spent longer time there without realizing
Even though it was not in the plan, it was worth every second to be there. This reminds me of a poem once taught to my students in school.
Leisure
W. H. DAVIES
WHAT is this life if, full of care,
We have no time to stand and stare?—
No time to stand beneath the boughs,
And stare as long as sheep and cows:
No time to see, when woods we pass,
Where squirrels hide their nuts in grass:
No time to see, in broad daylight,
Streams full of stars, like skies at night:
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.
