Old Happy Face

Profession has inspired me
rendering service to the clients
on the update of their health status
made sure that my analysis are correct
in which the doctors based their diagnosis
days in my whole life have been all work
as it comes to end this retirement day.

Today marks my honorable exit
on reaping what I sow for years
rise to claim the accolade I deserve
nothing more uplifting than retirement
onwards I shall wear an old happy face.

Retirement indeed does make for happy faces...then boredom sets in and off to work we go again...Well, at least I did as a "Storyteller to Preschool children at our local library...Great job... Love your poem...it has a certain caring about it. Dorothy A Poet Who Loves To Sing
