That any man or beast that night should lack
The happiness I had.

Of building, benediction,
Measuring love and money
Ways of slow dying.

Philip Larkin
What are days for; Days are where we live. They come, they wake us; Time and time over. They are to be happy in; Where can we live but days.
Philip Larkin

Philip Larkin
