"What are days for?
Days are where we live.
They come, they wake us
Time and time over.
They are to be happy in."
Philip Larkin - 'Days'
I love Larkin's poetry, but he was a notoriouisly gloomy and curmudgeonly so-and-so. This must be one of the positive things he ever wrote. possibly the only positive thing he ever wrote.
