long enough to see the raindrops on a leaf ...
slow down
to have a bath instead of a shower ...
slow down
to percolate coffee instead of instant ..
slow down
to hold that once small hand instead or rushing.
Slow down
to listen and not just hear.
Slow down
To stretch instead of aching.
Slow down
To give thanks instead of complaints.
Slow down
to breathe deeply ... ...
instead of shallow.
Slow down to live; don't just exist.
I'm a lover of free verse poetry and cups of tea. The quickest way to energise me is to give me a moment under open sky, preferably in a garden. I love beautiful trees and Purple Crested Lourie birds and making school come alive for my students.
