THE FOLLOWING RETIREMENT VERSES ARE PERSONALISED, WRITTEN FOR SPECIFIC BRITISH PEOPLE, BUT THEY MAY BE USED AS A SOURCE OF INSPIRATION WHEN SEEKING A POEM or VERSE FOR SOMEONE WITH SIMILAR HOBBIES, HABITS, TRAITS, CHARACTERISTICS.

RETIRING POLICEMAN / KEEN RUNNER, WALKER, GARDENER

You spent years as a cop
Patrolling on the beat
Dishing out punishment..
...to your poor aching feet

You've done many a half marathon
Pounding along the street
You've walked miles round dale and mountain
We feel sorry for your feet

You're keen on growing potatoes and things
Ankle deep in peat
Fair enough you're keen on vegetables
But think of your plates of meat

Sup beer, enjoy the grandkids
Give yourself a treat
Take advantage of your bus pass
Get slippers for your feet

Happy retirement Ernie
Your working life's complete
A career spanning 50 years
Now that's what we call a feat !!

RETIRING HEADMASTER / GOLFER / GARDENER / SHORT IN HEIGHT / KEEN ON CLASSICAL MUSIC / CHOIR CONDUCTOR

The Head's Dilemma

Should I continue rigging league tables
Or retire early instead
I'm afraid the school's lost the race
By just a short head (groan !!)

A raspberry to the Governors Report
Difficult parents know what they can do
I'm off to play a bit of golf
Err...and scrub a floor or two

Oh dear...I'll have to do the housework
Scrubbing floors and all that stuff
'Cos 'Er indoors will have to work
The pension's not enough

This retirement lark's not easy
There's no gain without the pain
It can't be golf AND gardening
My knees won't stand the strain

Let's see...choir...golf...housework
That's an awful lot to do
I'm far too old to retire
I'll just stay at Sandhill View

Should I stick to my cushy number
Or vacuum and tend the soil?
I'll let the flip of a coin decide
Is it a Head or Toil?

Toil wins!!

Lots of loveetc

RETIRING UNION REP / GAMBLER / METAL DETECTOR TREASURE HUNTER

A dedicated union man
Protecting the members' bread and butter
And on fruit machines and horses
You've been known to have a flutter

Whether "horse trading" or horse betting
There's many times you've won
Not just a skilled negotiator
But a lucky son of a gun

Armed with your metal detector
Lady luck and time for leisure
We're sure you'll make a million
Finding buried treasure

We'll miss your calming influence
You were articulate and rational
Good luck Brian...but before you go
Have you got a tip for the National?

*******************************

RETIRING HEADMASTER / CYCLIST / COMMUNIST / VERY TALL / WEIGHTWATCHER / KEEP FIT FAN

James, you're a very caring bloke
A principal with principles, so true
You cycle, drink and play guitar
Not an easy thing to do

Your love of Central America
Can be seen on what you wear
It's an odds on bet, to say you are
Just a little left of Blair

You're big on sport and keeping fit
And on America's Cuban flop
You're big on Education
You're just very big...full stop

You fast on all your white days
And have red and green days too
And you're also fond of the light brown days
When you sup a pint or two

This tribute's endorsed by all the staff
And your friends, of which there's many
The Government saved a buck or two

But squandered a good Penney

Good Luck etc
