Retirement Poem by Akhtar Jawad

Retirement

Rating: 5.0


Whatever may be game,
there is a time of winning,
touching the peak of fame,
every player starts losing,
not a matter of shame,
coming and going,
leaving behind only name,
an honorable leaving!
A veteran! Before he is lame,
And still smiling!

It's time to catch up with all the lost time Babajaan, Everyone retires, but this is just the beginning of new life. Every sports person reaches it's peak in it's career leaving place to all the new generation. The circle of life keeps continuing with big bread smile on it's face. beautiful poem close to reality.
