Do two men take the road together.
If they have not planned to do so.
Rarely do we all pull  together.
We just go with our own flow .

I was with someone of my age.
He’s full of  lighthearted energy .
He’s not giving up and continuing to engage.
Full of cheeky fun and no lethargy.

Never despair for one instant.
Keep on going as if you were young.
Just ignore all the irritating ageist cant.
Stride out through life as if stung.

We may eventually end up fired.
But hopefully not soon retired.

……

Just keep on working
It’s good for you and for them
And after all why not

…….
