Exciting Times

Exciting times
This last stage of my life.
The end of my working days
Have come near.
Nine to five grind
Is now falling behind.
The days ahead
Speak of sleeping in.
No one’s schedule but my own.
Relaxing in the sunshine
With my coffee cup.
Or in the warm evening breeze,
Glass of wine in my hand.
Conversation and laughter
With fellow retirees.
A life well deserved
After all these years.
