Later In Life Poem by RoseAnn V. Shawiak

Differing opinions in life are what keeps us on our
toes and adds much needed spice and variety to our
sometimes dull, mundane lives.

Going around, working, taking care of family, being
there for others, putting yourself last or not at all.

Never feeling neglected or put upon until later on in
life, as you gather your wits about you in senior years.

Tired, worn-out from all the years of sacrifice, wanting
some small amount of reprieve to come about - if even
for just a little while.
