RETIREMENT

Retirement is my vocation.
I'm always on vacation.
No demanding jobbies.
Just exercise and hobbies
And wholesome recreation.

Keeping up with kin and friends.
No burning candle at both ends.
My wife my only boss is.
In spite of investment losses,
My good cheer never ends.

Not always looking spiffy.
Can't do things in a jiffy.
More hours in the sack.
Of more pills keeping track.
Love life pretty iffy.

Teeth, eyes and ears barely work.
At least I'm not berserk.
My faculties are waning.
Grim Reaper, he is gaining.
But I don't have to go to work.
