Walk Slow

Written by C Hues

In life, I try to walk slow.
It’s nice—to breathe and walk slow.

Otherwise, life passes by
And time will merely stalk slow.

I make sure to hang on words—
Know that it’s peace to talk slow.

As a lad, in school I would
Write on the board with chalk, slow.

When my folks commanded me
I would refuse and balk, slow.
