Your Resignation

Your Resignation
“When it’s Time You Will Know” 

Before you make the decision, to submit your resignation
A lot of time is spent, in a state of summation.
As you go over expectations, of future inflation,
Your mind reflects, on the struggles of past affiliations.

Thinking, “is this the fate of our nations’ generations?”
All the while your heart is filled with temptations!

Then suddenly, there is calm, and a state of realization, 
An indication, that “it’s time” for rest and celebration.
With anticipation and deep thought, you start your narration,
The documented words, of your final resignation!

Many thanks Andrea! I write from my thoughts, and this on was born out of my own experiences when I retired three years ago.

Hi Daniel, It's a real tongue twister for sure, but that's the direction that my mind was going in at the time. Thanks for your kind words and the visit.
