Retirement

You know time is moving at a rapid pace, Chasing us all in a life time race. There are some days you'll made a sigh, And that's a fact you shouldn't deny You work hard to do your best, To conquer time and pass the tests. Through the years you'll make some plans, Always willing to take a stand. For the things you believe to be true and right, Are often tested in the darkness of night. The things that build your self-esteem, Helped made you wiser it would seem. Now, in your life you must pause, Find a new direction, seek a new cause. Thanks to all who believed in you, And knew the things you wanted to do. From the tedious hassle of man made time, You kept in step with a planned out rhyme. You will not be saying a hearty goodbye, And leaving your friend wondering why. But there is one other thing that you all should know, That we all must share as our lives grow: Time is moving at a rapid pace, Chasing us all in a life time race.
