Always Stop And Smell The Flowers Poem by Chris Embrick

Always take some time to stop and smell the flowers
Don't hurry past the things that make life beautiful
Before your life runs down to a few precious hours
Remember to share life with the people you love
There's always someone special, watching how you live
So with those around you, be sure to share your time
There's always someone needing what you have to give
You're sure to be remembered by the love you leave behind.


Note: This poem was inspired by a mother dying of cancer
While she was physically able, she always took
her daughter for a walk.The little girl loved
flowers. The mother always stopped to let her daughter
swell the flowers, a memory that will last for a life
time.
