new year again

new year again

A Poem by yorkie

A new year is here again
really just like the last one
maybe the one before
these days they all seem the same.

yes it does get harder
as the years take there toll
there are more things to be done
age is pulling us down.

all I can do in life
is just keep going along
jobs still need doing you know
there is no beginning or end.

I do not begrudge this position
maybe its not what I chose
but I would choose it again
when it comes to true love
it will never end.

At 80, I can identify with this one. Retirement does not mean uninterrupted ease. There are, as you say, more things to be done. Jobs still need doing. But if they are for those we love, we would not have it otherwise.

I share your thoughts on this. We just continue doing because we can, and it's expected. No rolling over and going to sleep. You did good, my friend.
