INTEREST-ING DEPOSITION ON RETIREMENT
This poem was written as a gift for a close family friend and a bank officer on the occasion of his retirement
We work, all of us do, certain works are INTERESTing,
Some create INTEREST in making others do work
Some give INTEREST to work you more and more
Some give up INTEREST to work after all, after a while.
And mature, unlike in the bank where it’s the reverse,
It will be waning as one reaches the d-day, that’s why
They say you retire, meaning thereby you go back
To the place you came from (family) with added interest.
With this rejuvenated INTEREST, this time for the family.
When hairs lose their INTEREST to grow any more,
Your limbs show least INTEREST for simple locomotion,
Your brain compoundly lose the zest to do the work .
For their INTEREST to multiply and enjoyment around,
Till your heart shows the least rhythmic INTEREST,
To rejuvenate your naturally declining simple INTERESTS.
HAPPY RE-TIRED LIFE SIR AND ENJOYING YEARS AHEAD
