Run not so fast through life,

For Life is not a race.

It’s a journey to be savoured

Each step of the way.

Depends a lot on your behaviour,

Tender with the youngster,

Sympathetic with the struggler,

Tolerant towards

The weaker and the stronger,

Compassionate with the ager,

For someday You too

Will be going through these.

From Cradle to Grave.
