Whether you are retired or looking forward to its arrival, these verses are written especially for you. Enjoy life while taking in retirement’s ride.
Waking in darkness
Morning’s warm greeting
Day ahead calling
Night’s sleep retreating
Challenges waiting
Agenda sleeps for now
Coffee sends greetings
Where’s this morning’s chow?
Sunrise glows outside
Nature’s verses sing
Kitchen fills with warmth
Time’s melody swings
Decisions to make
Day moves by itself
Life in retirement
Tasks wait for oneself
Life now transitions
Driving slower lane
Each day’s gentle pace
Always entertains
