A Good Life

Never thought retirement
would find me
walking
along the shore
under a cold and clouded sky
thinking
of the moments from so long ago

Feeling the mist
softly kissing my soul
while leaving an everlasting impression
though mine
seem to vanish with each wave
that washes upon the sand

Today
though still an intricate part of time
doesn't feel quite the same
as the days gone by
maybe
it's the solitude of the moment
or maybe
it's just the gentle rain
neither good or bad
better or worse
just different

So as I
walk along the shore
with no real destiny in mind
and only my thoughts
to accompany me
I find myself
feeling each thought
from yesterday
and honestly
it feels pretty good reminiscing

Hey Mig
Great poem. It really spoke to me. Thanks brother.
