Take New Years Slowly
The year does now approach its end
As months have quickly gone away
What message does time really send,
As we welcome the New Years Day?
Must we hasten or quickly greet
Each day is if it was the last?
Or, quickly say to those we meet
Hurry up or this shall pass?
Grab on now to the second hand
Let time then be within your grip
But appreciate it; the moving sand
Or else then time away, will slip
