Retirement Day
Poet: Catherine Pulsifer, ©2020The day has now come
For all of us, not just some
To say goodbye and good luck
You did it, you lined up your ducks.
You get to do whatever you want
Whatever it is, we are confident
That success will follow you
No matter what you do
Happy Retirement, you will be missed
Wishing you a life full of bliss.
Words to make the new retire smile as they think about no longer working!
Hard To Believe
Poet: Catherine Pulsifer, © 2020
This day we can see
It's so hard to believe
The day you get to retire
A day which we all aspire
You get to stop work
For us, that would be a perk
You can spend all day in your pajamas
Watching all the TV dramas
Or you can spend your days at the beach
And when we call you, we will not reach
Or work in your garden planting flowers
You can spend time there, all your hours.
You don't need to worry about rain
Inside you can remain
And when we see the snow
You can drink your coffee oh so slow.
You can throw out all the work rules
You need not worry about time or schedules
Your days are free to do as you choose
You can stay at home or go on a cruise.
Whatever you decide to do
We hope you know we will miss you!

Happy Retirement
Congratulations, Happy Retirement to you
You can now decide what you'll do
You can go for a nap whenever you want
The boss will no longer be there to haunt
You can read a book
Or you can just cook
The world you can travel
Or stay home and rake up gravel....
Poems for a Happy Retirement
What do the days bring when you no longer have to work. Verses that state what retirement brings.
Retirement Brings
Poet: Mary S. Scotsburn, ©2020
For some retirement makes them blue
And others, they are delighted they are through.
The daily routine can be thrown out
You can do want you want, you can even shout.
No more bosses, deadlines are gone
A time to be happy, time for a song.
Retirement is a gift to be taken
Start a new hobby, even plant a garden
Others have said, that those retirement days do fly by
You'll be busier now, you will say with a sigh.
Whatever retirement brings for you
Have fun in all that you do!
A poem that desires only good things for retirement. Appreciation for the new retiree for all they have done.
Enjoy Your Retirement
Poet: Catherine Pulsifer, © 2020
For us, this is a time that is sad
But for, you we know you're glad
You have worked for so many years
From you, we will see no sappy tears.
We have developed a working bond
And of you, we are so fond
But we know your retirement is overdue
Other interests you will now pursue.
You should be full of pride
As to us, you were more than a guide
You helped us all whenever you could
Your advice was always sound and good.
Enjoy your retirement in every way
We will miss you we must say.
But you deserve some fun
And you deserve lots of sun
So with best wishes, we send you on your way
Make sure to drop in and visit us someday.
Be happy, enjoy each coming day
You're getting gray and deserve some play!

A Day To Commemorate
Poet: Catherine Pulsifer, © 2020
This is a day to commemorate
Your day to retire what a date.
Finally, the day has arrived
All the work stuff you can archive.
We hate to see you depart
Without you here it breaks our heart
We are so happy for you
But, without you here we will be blue.
Okay that is enough about us
It is you we should be making a fuss
No longer do you have to do reports
You don't have to listen to the bosses' retorts.
You don't have to worry about being late
You can sleep in, won't that be great
Time can be spent with friends together
You no longer care about the bad weather.
Fighting the traffic and the stoplights
Now each morning you don't have to fight
You can take a drive whenever you please
You can enjoy the scenery even the trees.
You deserve some well-earned rest
We want you to know we think you're the best.
Happy Retirement!

I ignore the phone
R relax have fun
E enthusiasm each day you will have
M memories of another day
E eager to do the things you enjoy
N no more deadlines, no more stress
T take each day and do what you want
