Slow Dance Email

A lot  of people have gotten the "Slow dance email", all of the people who didn't like forwards just deleted it, but if you read on, i always do, you would have found iut that it was for a good cause!! The email was a poem a teenager with cancer wrote, for every person you sent it to, 3 cents were donated to a cancer fund, well, any way, here's  the poem from the  email that I got. I tried to post the whole email , but it wouldn't let me!! :( well, any way, here's 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 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 e 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 

˜˜˜˜˜˜˜˜˜˜˜˜˜˜˜˜˜˜˜˜˜˜˜˜˜˜˜˜˜˜˜˜˜˜˜˜˜˜˜˜˜˜˜˜˜˜˜˜˜˜˜˜˜˜˜˜ tried to change it as little as possible. The only things that are different are  the font and a few periods. 

Because you can't change this, it is perfect. 

I don't know her name but to whoever wrote this beautiful poem, you will always be in our hearts. <3
