>This poem was written by a terminally ill young girl in a New
>York Hospital.
>
>It was sent by a medical doctor - Make sure to read what is in
>the closing statement AFTER THE POEM.
>
>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 ga zed 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.
