Slow Dance Inspirational poem

I saw this one today and just had to share

This is a poem
written by a teenager with cancer.


It is quite the poem
This poem was written by a terminally ill young girl in a
New York Hospital.


It was sent
by a medical doctor -


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!
