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.
Time is short,
The music won’t last.
Ever told your child,
“We’ll do it tomorrow?”
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.
Do take it slower,
Hear the music
Before the song is over.
A seventeen year old girl w/cancer wrote this poem .....
Our lives are quick - I miss my sons & I pray the Lord will bring them both home safely. I pray all will be home soon.
