Senior Choices

Senior retirement that defies conventionality,
The power to endure and stay strong.

To return to passages that reflect a forever young concept,
I choose to wash away the gray.

Stay slim and regain my young figure,
Resume hobbies that are complimentary.

Live at a beautiful residence that goes beyond previous residences,
The Lord's Ten commandments a reminder of God's blessings.

A mighty fortress is my church and God,
Song comparative to many levels of singing. 

Fashions elegant and contemporary, 
Socialization patterns exclusive.

Relatives and companions guesting and living with me,
God's many blessings and a good education guides.

University a favorite companion,
The learning continues and compliments.
