Haiku No. 143: Retirement (7 parts, yeah it’s long, lol)

retirement

Three weeks of work left.
Holy cow! It’s happening!
I’ve never not worked.

Not since age 19
When I was in school, felt free.
I only worked summers.

In 3 weeks I’m done.
A week later, head out west
with my son, I’m scared.

In 5 weeks, I’ll move
Myself. My life. So scary.
So exciting too.

At times, think I’m nuts
to do all this, at this age.
But is there a choice?

No, there’s not, for me.
So onward, to warmer climes
And easier life.

Feeling joy rising.
Peace is happening, starts now
Love is forever.
