Poet: C. A. Lynch
Now is the time for retirement for you
A time for you that is overdue.
You have worked, day in and day out,
To you, we want to give a shout.
Our lives are like books filled with stages
Each chapter is filled with different ages
Memories we make on this journey of life
Some are happy and some full of strife.
But this next chapter is a relaxing one
Days full of happiness and full of fun
May the days of your retirement bring
Memories to be made of happy things.
Hobbies to work on and learning new things
May your days be filled with many blessings.
The next chapter is a time
Don't listen to others, this is your prime.
Poet: Julie Hebert
The season of life changes now with retirement,
It's time for a new beginning, with new requirements.
At last, the time to have fun and retire,
In days of joy and pleasure, no one will tire.
Too much time was spent working hard,
And now it's our turn for it all to discard.
The future is filled with hope and possibilities,
A day by day celebration, a day of positivity!
Poet: C. A. Lynch
As your retirement beckons, we must all prepare
For the change that's coming, a life without the daily fare
But fear not, dear friend, for this is your time
To slow down, relax and let your spirit climb
No more deadlines to meet or early mornings rise
Just peaceful moments and fulfilling sunrise
May happiness be with you in every new view
For you deserve it all and we'll miss you too.
Poet: C. A. Lynch
Now is your time, you get to be free,
Retire and not worry, smile all day with glee,
As we keep working, while you take a nap,
So long, farewell, au revoir, but know you'll leave a big gap.
No more meetings and deadlines to meet,
No more emails or clients to greet.
Enjoy your retirement, drink up that tea,
And let us do the work while you live carefree.

Retiring from the day's grind,
The fresh page of this chapter is signed.
Dreams come alive, old and new,
Bringing fulfillment into view.
An adventure within life's timeline,
A new chapter to design.
Retirement creates a destiny,
Exciting dreams turn reality.
Retirement Sayings
The poem, Now Is The Time, is so good at reminding us how each day is a blessing and how no matter the age or your season of life each day life isn't over until it is over. Growing older, retiring, or making a big change in your life does not mean we should sit back and just wait for the day we die. We aren't just "putting in time", we should be spending our time making every moment count, no matter the circumstances.
Poet: C. K. Smith
Some talk of happy days gone by
My happy days are now;
While memory brings past bright days nigh.
This day's good we allow.
Yes, each new day I try to make
Advance on yesterday
One day less of earth's road to take
Toward the heavenly way.
As day by day we walk that way
The road grows smooth the while;
The somber clouds and evening gray
May brilliant hopes beguile.
Thus we may happiness possess,
And happiness impart;
Making in life our troubles less.
With loving, hopeful heart.
