~~ Goodbye ~~
The peace overflows as we journey forward
From a life we’ve known for years.
The work’s been done, it’s time to move on
A future of unknowns aplenty.
Celebrate life as never before
Worries of work behind.
It’s time to enjoy the calm around you
A tranquil world to see.
Retirement may mean to leave behind
Friends had throughout the years.
As time goes by those friendships fade
You’ll visit infrequently.
But never doubt with those you’ve had
The lives once intertwined.
Will cherish always your good deeds
Remembered indefinitely.
The peace overflows as you journey forward
From a life you’ve known for years.
A job well done, you’ve now moved on
I’ll miss you incredibly.
