Slow Down

Slow down
Pause for a while
Take a deep breath
Loosen yourself and relax
You don't need to hurry
To do what needs to be done

Slow down
Allow yourself to enjoy
The time in your hands
Go for a leisure walk
And enjoy the moment
Today put yourself first
You maybe too busy
On other days
That you forget
To think about yourself

Slow down
Take a closer look
At your surroundings
Smell those flowers
Look up at the sky
And see the clouds
As they drift and change shapes
Watch the sunset

Slow down
Do the things
That make you happy
That will put a smile on your face
That will bring warmth to your heart
