slow dance a 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.



                  Time 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.
