Retire
I look back to when I retired
most of life till then perspired
put foot to rear and not get fired
incurred recurring tasks till tired.
Work every day, enduring each
for sixty five years to reach
a one in two chance beseech
one dozen left to enjoy the beach.
Though now there are long naps to take
avoiding chance lest body break
choke down pills and limit cake
extending time for old times' sake.
So retire thoughts that make you wait
make the leap, don't delay fate
take anew each day, each date
moment to savor, cherish, create!
