May you have a Happy New Year!

To those we love and see each day
And other loved ones far away.
To all good friends
whose friendship means so much
And those with whom
we’re sonehow out of touch
I wish you every happiness this Holiday Season 
and throughout the coming year!


It is unblieveable how fast this year has come and gone!   This year has flown by like a dove, swift yet graceful.  

Thank you for your support and encouragement in writting.  Even though we have all been like a hawk, trying to make the most out of every day, let us make time for ourselves, to meditate, catch up, and enjoy life without stress, with lots of laughter, and Love!

 The Slow Dance


Have you ever seen a rainbow,
or ride on a merry-go-round?
Or listened to the rain
tapping on the ground?

Have you ever followed 
a hummingbird’s flight?
Or gazed when the sun 
starts fading into night?

You better slow down.
Don't dance so fast.
Time is short. and 
The music won't last.

Do you run through each day
like a chicken without a head?
And when asked to stay,
Do you run away instead?

When the day is done
Do you lie in your bed
With hundreds of thoughts  
pondering through your head?

You'd better slow down
Don't dance so fast.
Time is short.
The music won't last.

Have you ever told your mother
I’ll see you tomorrow?
And in your haste,
Not see her sorrow?

Have you ever lost touch,
Let a good friendship die
Cause you never had time
To call and say,"hi"

You'd better slow down.
Don't dance so fast.
Time is short.
The music won't last.

When you stress yourself out to get somewhere
You miss half the fun of getting there.
When you worry and hurry through your day,
It is like a special gift....Thrown away.

Life should be savoured.
Do take it slower
Hear the music
Before the song is over.
