Slow down

You're rushing through the morning and soon you'll find it's noon
You haven't stopped a moment; haven't time to hum a tune
Yet deep inside your being, though it doesn't shout, it's true
Your spirit is needing stillness:  a moment of quiet with you .

The day has  its requirements and is demanding as can be
Things are piling up and work is the only thing you can see
While you are needing to focus on the task you have at hand
A moment or two in silence helps in ways you can't understand

Schedule it into your work day a little pausing here and there
Slow down just enough to hear your heartbeat in the air
Take notice of your surroundings and in everything you do
Remember nothing can be done without taking care of you
