Slow
Dance
This
is a poem
written by a teenager with cancer.
She wants to
see how many
people get her poem.
It is quite the poem
Please pass it
on.
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 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.
PART 2.....FORWARDED
E-MAILS ARE TRACKED TO OBTAIN THE TOTAL
COUNT...do not change the title
Dear All:
PLEASE pass this mail on to everyone you know -
even to those you don't
know! It is the request of a special girl who will soon
leave this world
due to cancer.
This young girl has 6 months left
to live,
and as her dying wish, she wanted to send a letter telling everyone to
live their life to the fullest, since she never will.
She'll
never make it to prom, graduate from high school,
or get married and have a
family of her
own.
By you sending
this to as many people as
possible, you can give her and her family a
little hope, because with every name
that this is sent to, The American
Cancer Society will donate 3 cents per name
to her treatment and recovery
plan. One guy sent this to 500 people! So I know
that we can at least send
it to 5 or 6. It's
not even your money, just
your
time!
sometimes words to say can be so hard
here just for you with a beautiful flower is also your thank you card..X
Ƹ̵̡Ӝ̵̨̄Ʒ ...xXx... Ƹ̵̡Ӝ̵̨̄Ʒ

~~~~ FOR A SPECIAL FRIEND ~~~
OUR LIVES ARE FILLED WITH HAPPINESS AND BLESSINGS WITHOUT END,
AND ONE OF THE GREATEST GIFTS OF ALL
IS TO HAVE A SPECIAL FRIEND.
IT'S NICE TO HAVE FRIENDS
SOMEONE TO SHARE THINGS WITH
A THOUGHT, A MEMORY.
IT'S NICE TO KNOW THERE IS SOMEONE
WHO CARES AND WILL ALWAYS
BE THERE WHEN YOU NEED THEM
TO LEND AN EAR, GIVE COMFORT,
OR TO SHARE IN OUR HAPPINESS
IT'S EVEN NICER HAVING
A SPECIAL FRIEND LIKE YOU.
WITH LOVE LINDA.XXX
YOUR JOURNEY THROUGH THE MIST
Through the mist of the morning you try to see;
Instead you feel lost, can’t find your way, and you weep.
You wonder during the waking hours, You wander during the night,
And can’ find a place to lay your head, you can’t find the light.
There is a place, you know, where all of this will make sense,
Where all your thoughts will match with your senses.
In such a place you will able to hold everything together,
And these thoughts of yours you will be able to gather.
To get there you just need to keep on going, one step at a time,
Even if you are not sure of the direction in this heart of yours.
Each step is a victory, each day that you wake up is a step closer,
The journey is important too, not just the destination.
Keep strong through your journey in the mist, you are not alone.
Someone somewhere will guide you through, whether it be your angel
or a friend.
Thankyou for all your kind words of support you give me.
