I got this in an email and it's sad but a great poem








Dance 








This 


is a poem 


written by a teenager with cancer.








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 - 

















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.

i was actually hoping you got that because i knew you would
but in real life if i said that as fast as i would usually at least Tanner would be confused
and plus i like to practice my confusing skills though my sis is better at confusing ppl
anyway i talk to myself as i type of course in my mind and as i talk to myself i try to say it faster
and i had the thought on my mind so i typed it
ya gotta a problem with that?
