Just Floating

One quarter of the year has passed;
It seems to me it’s flown by fast
And spring is finally here at last,
The winter just a dream.

Those frigid days and piles of snow
Feel like they happened long ago
And, though I know that isn’t so,
Perhaps a bit extreme,

When seasons come, they disappear
More quickly every single year.
Despite that knowledge, I’m still here,
Just floating down the stream.

Retirement, in good health, allows people the luxury of floating down the stream.
