Clock ticking has ceased for work
as if it is past like me somehow
making everyday a Sunday
and all the time is me time now.
As I think of my earlier days
nostalgia enwraps me and peeps
and engrossed in beautiful past
half asleep I enjoy beauty sleeps.
Engagement and leadership
that I used to like most
can’t be available at present,
so time pass is the problem foremost.
Kids being married and established
there is no problem by God’s grace
and understanding contentment as the key
I am enjoying life away from mad race.
It’s no point talking big
about spiritual pursuits and thoughts
but my poetic passion being savior
I write poems to open up mental knots.
Last but not the least I must say,
reading of books and music I enjoy
and thanks to my retirement
I am floating in the life sea with joy.
