Busy, busy

Busy, busy, always busy

With far too much to do.

When will we ever learn

To slow down and take it in.?

We don’t have to live this way

Nature has its time of peace

While it gathers all the goodness

And waits for spring to start.

Where are you at in your life?

Have you learned to take it easy?

Not to fill your days with busyness

But leave a gap for life itself.

Rushing doesn’t get jobs done

It only slows the time it takes

And makes you feel all fretful

Before you reach your destination.

Pause before the “Christmas” rush

And decide what is significant

You don’t have to “do it all”

Leave some time for you to breathe.
