Please pass it onThis poem was written by a terminally ill young girl in a New York Hospital .It was sent bya medical doctor - Make sure to read what is in the closing statement AFTER THE POEM. SLOW DANCEHave you ever watched kidsOn a merry-go-round?Or listened to the rainSlapping 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 sofast.Time is short.The music won't last.Do you run through each dayOn the fly?When you ask How are you?Do you hear the reply?When the day is doneDo you lie in your bedWith the next hundred choresRunning through your head?You'd better slow downDon'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 hissorrow?Ever lost touch,Let a good friendship dieCause you never had timeTo call and say,'Hi'You'd better slow down.Don't dance so fast.Time isshort.The music won't last.When you run so fast to get somewhereYou 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 slowerHear the musicBefore the song is over.------------ --------FORWARDED E-MAILS ARE TRACKED TO OBTAIN THE TOTAL COUNT.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 itto 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'snot even your money, just your time!PLEASE PASS ON AS A LAST REQUEST.Dr. Dennis Shields, ProfessorDepartme nt of Developmental and Molecular Biology1300 Morris Park AvenueBronx , New York 10461 EMAILING FOR THE GREATER GOODJoin me See how Windows Mobile brings your life together—at home, work, or on the go.
