SLOW DANCEHave you ever watched kidsOn a merry-go-roundOr listened to the rainSlapping 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 shortThe music won't lastDo you run through each day On the fly?When you ask How are you?Do you hear the reply?When the day is doneDo you lie in your bedWith the next hundred choresRunning through your headYou'd better slow downDon't dance so fast.Time is short.The

You don't need money;Just a disposition sunny;Just the wish to help anotherGet along some way or other;Just a kindly hand extendedOut to one who's unbefriended;Just the will to give or lend,This will make you someone's friend.Be a friend.
