I walk more slowly, now

Deliberate gait, now

More aware of the world I’m in, now

Look up at the Cosmos more than down at my feet , now

Slowly seeing all around

Lifting the smell of the day

Smiling more at funny faces

Especially mine in the mirror, now

It seems daily I’m remined

Of what I tell others, unhappy

Unfulfilled, looking, seeking, now

It ain’t forever, it ain’t forever, it ain’t forever

NOW!
