Aizkustinošā ķēdes vēstule.  


Parasti es tās izdzēšu pat nelasot. Bet šī ir citāda. Nezinu cik nu patiesa ir šīs vēstules leģenda par slimu meiteni. Taču pats dzejolis ir skumji aizkustinošs. Droši vien lielākā daļa to jau redzēja kaut kur draugos, bet anyway,

Have you ever watched kids
on a merry-go-round?
Or listened to the rain
slapping on the ground?

Ever followed
a butterfly's erratic flight?
Or gazed at the sun
into the fading night?

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

Do you run through each day
оn the fly?
When you ask How are you,
do you hear the reply?

When the day is done,
do you lie in your bed
with the next hundred chores
running through your head?

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

Ever told your child
We'll do it tomorrow
аnd in your haste,
not see his sorrow?

Ever lost touch
Let a good friendship die
‘cause you had never time
or call and say Hi?

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

When you run so fast to get somewhere,
you miss half the fun of getting there.
When you worry and hurry through your day,
it is like an unopened gift.... thrown away.

Life is not a race.
Do take it slower.
Hear the music
Before the song is over.

 
 
I feel: nostalgic
I hear: Patti Austin - Through the test of time

Grūti iedomāties cilvēku, kura pēdējā pirmsnāves vēlēšanās ir nosūtīt ķēdes vēstuli :D Also this.

cik es sapratu viņas vēlēšanās bija vienkārši lai cilvēki izlasa šo dzejoli. kā tas izplatīts tas jau cits stāsts. bet galu galā whatever, doesn't make me like it less

nu dzejolim jau nav ne vainas, bet šāda izplatīšana ir necieņa pret patieso autoru.
