Take time to enjoy life.
Smell the roses while you can
Please stop to take the time.
Inhale their floral perfume
Their scent as sweet as wine.

Try to enjoy those quiet moments
Because they are far and few.
Each one allows you to reflect
On what you have to do.

Enjoy the roses while you can
For one day, they will be no more.
Their beauty lasts for a short while
In a moment, you cannot ignore.

Take the time to enjoy life
Enjoy what it has to offer.
Life is a short like the rose
And has the beauty of the flower.
