May God Bless Retirement Of My Dear Friend, Dr. Cary Habegger Poem by NHIEN NGUYEN MD

MAY GOD BLESS RETIREMENT OF MY DEAR FRIEND, DR.CARY HABEGGER

May the veil of happiness
Cover you, like the soft moonlight!
May the rays of happiness
Shine upon you, like the spring sunshine!

Your long awaited time has arrived.
Now you can say proudly with a big smile
That you are very happy to retire
And no longer be bound by the string of work time.

You have no more job worries when you lie to sleep
No more lists of patients' appointments to keep
No more patients on suicide prevention watch list
And no more treatment plans to complete.

Now, you are retired with your own scheduled time
Which you wisely choose to serve God and family life.
May God shower grace on you and your beloved wife
And bless your golden years will many happy smiles.

Oh my dear friend and colleague of a life time!
My eyes will miss seeing you at times
But always, you will be in my heart and my mind
And I will repeat this prayer many times:

May the veil of happiness
Cover you, like the soft moonlight!
May the rays of happiness
Shine upon you, like the spring sunshine!
