Make sure to read what is in the closing statement AFTER THE POEM.
SLOW DANCE
Have you ever
Watched kids
On a merry-go-round?
Or listened to
The rain Slapping on the ground?
Ever followed a Butterfly's' erratic flight?
Or gazed at the sun into the fading Night?
You better slow down.
Don't dance so Fast.
Time is short.
The music won't Last.
Do you run through each day
On the Fly?
When you ask
How are you?
Do you hear the
Reply? When the day is done
Do you lie in your Bed
With the next hundred chores
Running through
Your head?
You'd better slow down
Don't dance so Fast.
It!
Me is short.
The music won't Last.
Ever told your child,
We'll do it Tomorrow?
And in your haste, Not see His Sorrow?
Ever lost touch,
Let a good Friendship die
Cause you never had time
To call
And say,'Hi'
You'd better slow down.
Don't dance So fast.
Time is short.
The music won't Last.
When you run so fast to get somewhere
You Miss half the fun of getting there.
When you worry and hurry
Through your day,
It is like an unopened Gift....
Thrown away.
Life is not a Race.
Do take it slower
Hear the Music
Before the song is over.
