Slow Down

 

 

Cars speeding by,

Honking horns,

Screeching brakes.

People hurrying here,

And there;

People everywhere;

Yelling, screaming,

Impatient to arrive.

Always going,

Never pausing.

That’s how life

In the city

Goes.

Time to pause;

Time to think;

See the beauty.

Smile at the lonely.

Watch the clouds

Drifting across the sky.

See the flowers

In your neighbors garden.

Feel the gentle breeze

And breathe in the fresh air.

 

Take time to pause

In life.

Take time.

See beauty there.

Slow down and watch.

See

Beauty all around.
