Slow Dance

Tweet

I wanted to share this poem with you that was written by a terminally ill girl in a New York Hospital. It was sent to me by a friend in an email and the aim of the email was that this young girl wanted as many people as she could to read it to get her message through to live your life to the fullest, as she couldnt. It was sent by Dr Dennis Sheilds to help raise money for her treatment and the future treatment for others. I think you will take in the message it gives, and make sure you have a tissue handy xx Let me know what you think. SLOW DANCE Have you ever watched kids on the merry go round Or listened to the rain slapping on the ground Ever followed a butterflies erratic flight Or gazed at the sun into the fading night You'd better slow down Dont dance too fast Time is short The music wont last Do you run through each day on the fly When you ask how are you do you hear the reply When day is done do you lie in your bed With the next hundred chores running through your head You'd better slow down Dont dance too fast Time is short The music wont last Ever told your child we'll do it tomorrow and in your haste not see his sorrow Ever lost trust, let a good friendship die Cause you never had time to call and say Hi You'd better slow down Dont dance too fast Time is short The music wont 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 unopen gift......Thrown away Life is not a race, do take it slower Hear the music, before the song is over.
