Uit Wandering Spirits

Time

Have you ever watched kids

on a merry-go-round

Or listened to the train

slapping on the ground?

Ever followed a butterfly's erratic flight

or gazed at the sun into the fading night?

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 lay in your bed

with the next hundred chores

running through your head?

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"?

When you run so hard 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
