Retirement Poems

**

On the last day here we'd like to say
Well done you! You've made it to the end;
You've worked hard all your life
And our best wishes send.

Your office already seems pretty empty but
We know your hobbies vary and will keep you entertained
All very strange for us and a new boss coming
But we will miss you and your anecdotes all the same.
Maggie-May

Enjoy every retirement day as if it was your last
and one day you will be right about it.

Retirement is a time
to look back
with satisfaction,
and a time
to look ahead
with anticipation.
A time to fill
each day
with enjoyment.
A very special
time for you.

Congratulations

Half our life is spent trying to find something to do
with the time we have rushed through life trying to save.
Will Rogers

Old age is an excellent time for outrage.
My goal is to say or do at least one outrageous
thing every week.

Retirement Poems

**

Retirement is a time
For feeling glad to be alive,
A time when friendships blossom
And enthusiasms thrive.

A chance to do the special things
You always wished you could.
Retirement is a special time
For knowing...life is good.

Congratulations on your Retirement

Many people don't know how to stop
So they send us to have lessons;
We've shown them a thing or to
Just who do they think they're messin'!

We've worked and worked and need to find
A passion an interest to call our own;
Not all are into needlework
Although many seeds we've sown.

Travelling is a Gods send
It can take up a lot of the day;
Sittin on the Metro
Going round and round "I say"

Meeting friends and neighbours
And shopping in the Toon;
We have them round for tea
And say " Hope to see you soon."

The grandchildren are a treasure
And make us laugh so much;
We find them very tiring
Those little such and such.

We don't know how we found the time
To go to so called work;
As we're so busy from dusk to dawn
I now have a choice to shirk or not to shirk.
Maggie-May
