For A Friend

For my friend, so recently met -
I don't wonder at the party for
your birthday, but your retirement?!

Aren't you a little young to retire?
Or just overwhelmed? Can't blame you,
not with all the things that go on here.

Reminds me of California - the land
of 'fruits and nuts' - well, good for
you that your taking a break!

And getting back in touch with reality
isn't all that bad...after all, you sound
like you have a lot to look forward to.

So happy birthday, congrats on your
early retirement - I've heard you've
done a lot of work setting up groups

Here on AP for support, for people
who need help, and I applaud you!
Best of luck on the path you're taken!
