On Retirement

Retirement? Retire man, so what! ’Tis just a natural thing That many tend to do. ’Tis not the end; ’Tis a beginning, dear friend; ’Tis a Godsend; And He will fend. So, keep your calm; Retirement’s a balm, For wearied body, mind! A new happiness, you’ll find. And God will take you, In a newer direction; With Heaven as goal, Why then worry, pal? Cheer up man! And pray as fervently as you can; Life will be fine, Once again. God will provide; God will decide; Just rest awhile And wear a smile. Today will be gone; The morrow will be born; God will your life adorn When comes a new morn! A new door opens, right today; Despair not brother, ne’er, nay! This is your great DAY! You’ll soon be in your new way! God bless you!
