Retirement

Remember . . . .

When magic was real
And reality was realer?
Screaming with zeal
Being a squealer?

Energy unbounded
Giggling loud
Very ungrounded
Easily wowed

Innocent visions
Earnest intentions
Easy decisions
No apprehensions

The older I get
The more I discover
It’s this mind set
I need to recover

I’ll make it for real
Very soon now, okay?
Jumping off the big wheel
And going to play
