Words of Wisdom

Slow Dance

Have you ever watched kids on the merry-go-round?

Or listened to the rain slapping 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 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 seen his sorrow?

Ever lost touch, let a 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.
