Moving Forward
Living in the city gave me a hair line fracture
only discovered
upon my move to Gibsons
where time stands still amongst the lapping waves
and long grey cranes that waggle their heads in search of fish-
there is much freedom here I think
while walking down our one Main Street
No don't hunger for the city-
it's endless malls and congested traffic
that smacks of arteriosclerosis of the veins
I celebrate my decision to relocate thereby having time
and opportunity to explore retirement that
motivates me to kick start my creativity-
I count my blessings everyday.
