the poem:
count that day lost
by George Eliot
If you sit down at set of sun
And count the acts that you have done
And,counting,find
One self denying deed,one word
That eased the heart of him who heard
One glance most kind
That fell like sunshine where it went
Then you may count that day well spent
***
But if,through all the livelong day
You have cheered no heart by yea or nay
If, through it all
You have nothing done that you can trace
That brought the sunshine to one face
No act most small
That helped some soul and nothing cost
Then count that day as worse than lost
