Life Emeritus
Emeritus in days,
Find hope in such little things
that collected
dropped in your lap
through a lifetime
but special still,
all gifts.
Wholly invested in a life,
in love
though they left before
you made the first payment.
In days of learning you finished well
the life you left behind
in you I found so kind..
a swish of tassel just for you.
No more struggle, no debt unpaid
only a few flowers to be laid..
Life emeritus.
When you finish in war,
trying to even up the score..
decide the merits of fighting
and just what it was for.
