Sip your tea
Nice and slow
No one ever knows
When it’s time to go,
There’ll be no time
to enjoy the glow,
So sip your tea
Nice and slow

Life is too short but
Feels pretty long,
There’s too much to do, so
Much going wrong,
And most of the time you
Struggle to be strong
Before it’s too late
and it’s time to go,
Sip your tea
Nice and slow

Some friends stay,
Other go away,
Loved ones are cherished but
Not all will stay.
Kids will grow up
And fly away.
There’s really no saying how
Things will go,
So sip your tea
Nice and slow.
When I am dead
Your tears will flow
But I won’t know
Cry with me now instead

You will send flowers,
But I won’t see
Send them now instead

You’ll say words of praise
But I wont hear,
Praise me now instead.
You’ll forget my faults,
But I won’t know..
Forget them now, instead.

You’ll miss me then,
But I won’t feel
Miss me now, instead

You’ll wish you could have
Spend more time with me,
Spend it now instead

When you hear I’m gone, you’ll
Find your way to my house to
Pay condolence but we haven’t even spoken in years
Look for me now.

“Spend time with every person around you, and help them with whatever you have to make them happy, your families, friend and acquaintances. Make them feel special because you never know when time will take them away from you forever.”

Alone I can “say” but together we can “talk”.
Alone I can “enjoy” but together we can “celebrate”.
Alone I can “smile” but together we can “laugh”.

# That’s the “beauty” of human relations. We are nothing without each other. So stay connected!
