Old is gold
So I’ve been told
And the facts do blend
When one thinks of a friend
Seniors are well into their prime
And therefore make best use of time
They now have the courage to do and dare
Their multi-tasking skills are beyond compare
May they find time to do what they want
May no unpleasant dreams ever haunt
I wish that life treats them in a way that’s fair
I wish them health, and family that care.
So today on ‘International Senior’s Day
I, to my Lord, do humbly pray
May they continue to have lots of fun
And also guide and teach the young ones.

Well stated a great message with good form and rhyme. Lovely
You can afford to be a day late when a Senior.... no more schedules , deadlines...Oh sorry, you haven't still got your nose to the grindstone, have you?
As a poetic celebration, you have cracked it!
No schedules and no deadlines for sure; nose not stuck to the grindstone; and yet I find 24 hours too less to do all that I would like to cram in a day 🤐🤔😱
I know that feeling sometimes..... who said retirement was meant to be easy?
