Something to remind us of what is important as we start another week……..The white curtains,the fragrance of the flowers
in the bouquets with a note ‘get well soon’ had something beyond a simple note.A girl suffering from cancer was with a strong mental status where she was on a verge of realization of the value of every second of life and time which she wished she could get back .She wrote a poem based on it which I am putting it forward for you.It was sent by a medical doctor of the New York Hospital
SLOW DANCEHave you ever watched kidsOr 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 downDon’t dance so fastTime is short.Do you run through each dayOn the fly?When you ask how are you?Do you hear the reply?When the day is done!Do you lie in your bedWith the next hundred choresRunning through your head?You’d better slow downDon’t dance so fastTime is shortThe music wont lastEver told your childWe’ll do it tomorrow?And in your haste,Not see his sorrows?Ever lost touchLet a good friendship dieCoz you never had timeTo call and say,”hi”You’d better slow downDon’t dance so fastTime is so shortThe music wont lastWhen you run so fast to get somewhereYou miss halt the turn of getting thereWhen you worry and hurry through your dayIts like an unopened giftThrown awayLife is not a raceDo take it slowerHear the musicBy the song is over.Its never too late to realize the value of time and to relish every moment of our lives to make it a worth living!!The purpose of life is the life of purpose!!
