Retirement Poems
""
At last some time for pleasure trips
The ones you've always wanted;
The time to just take your time
New schedules all undaunted.
Those plan A's and B's
Coming down of that dusty shelf;
it's your time now just for you
To do things for your self.

""
You will be sadly missed
So pop in any time;
As you're passing down this way
Or come back part time?
""
The changes can be really weird
You'll miss the camaraderie;
I don't think so I hear you say
Well let's just wait and see.
""
Stay in bed late every day
You can do so if you want;
But now you're driven by not wasting
Time and going to old haunts.
Golf or sewing and gardening too
The cooking programmes on the telly;
Craft making takes your time
Or tasty recipes in your belly.

A new structure is what you need
As the clock has ruled your life;
Do this and that and be there when
Now you've got the high life!
""
New skills at college
Or even a degree;
My neighbour did a lot you know
Now she's cleverer than me.
Not hard I hear you say
I will miss all this banter;
So off on my horse I'll trot
I may even do a canter.
""
This place just won't be the same
Not without your face and smile;
Your laughter ringinjg around the office
Always going that extra mile.
Our volunteers and staff alike
Have all come in today;
Because that is exactly
Just what they wanted to say.

The management team have lost the plot
Already with new plans;
The demise of this project a certainty
Whilst not held in your fair hands.

Long days and lie ins
These are your plans for now;
But you will soon start wondering
How you found time to work anyhow.
Time whizzes by pottering around
Doing all the things that you've waited for;
Hobbies abound and friends keep in touch
Life now won't be a chore.
Enjoy the peace and the revelry
Listening to music and radio;
Travelling the world to see
Or setting up a studio.
Now's the time, the time that's yours
You know the stuff you've never had;
To do whatever comes into your head
Older age really isn't that bad!
