Active vs Retired Life
I face a big dilemma,
Is active life better than retired?
In active life, social ties thrive,
Conversations flow, stirring hearts and minds,
In retired life, tranquility retreats,
Fewer interactions, cherished with ease.
Active sports push boundaries, energy like a fiery spell,
Retired sports are leisurely, golf swings, fishing trips,
Time slows down, stress finds its resting place,
Both paths offer joy and grace.
Thoughts gallop like wild stallions, ideas and dreams to find,
Active minds, ever seeking, intellect unleashed.
Thoughts perch like wise owls, memories dance in peace,
Retired minds, wisdom shared with humble grace.
Active and retired, balance in life.
Live the active present, welcome the retired furure.
