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.

NICE

Nice poem .

Thank u all for yr respond. I did not write this poem. It was forwarded among my group chats in WhatsApp. This poem was written by a terminally ill teenager in a New York hospital.
She only had 6 months left to live and as her dying wish, she wanted to send a message telling everyone to live their life to the fullest since she never will.
She'll never make it to the prom, graduate from high school or get married and have a family of her own.

I find her poem so touching & beautiful, can't help but to share it.

Thanks For Sharing

Truths of life
Felt n dealt
Penned with vision
Thanks for sharing in the forum

Don't be shy wing's up and fly,
that's a step baby like a bird hands skies.
Tap up the feet, like a drum beats
move little X or cross it slice,
Shake your tummy into round,
sometimes left or sometimes right,
have you seen + move your face,
with neck in all directions EWNS..
Do it fast or do slow, np matter
how it will go, Just Dance....

From Heart..........Robin 🕺
