Advice for the Soon-to-be-Retired

To people not retired yet,

Some info I can share

On what you might expect if life

Decides to take you there.

 

You’ll have the time to travel

(If you have the ways and means)

And a chance to find some hobbies;

(Join the sports/crafts/gaming scenes).

 

If you’re lucky, there’ll be grandkids

Who might occupy some days

Or perhaps a part-time gig’s for you.

(Much nicer if it pays!)

 

But as the years progress

With all that freedom (so exquisite!)

You may find your planner filled

With every sort of doctor visit.

 

‘Cause it’s rare for a retiree

To never have a date

With a medical provider –

All those -ologists await!

 

So to those who’ll soon retire,

Cram it in – take every trip,

Since your future holds a specialist

For heart, brain, knee and hip!
