Retirement

Orchids surrounded by weeds and thistle.

Creativity and imagination hidden behind the face of labor.

People working in fields that are anything but.

Jobs, restaurants, houses they all keep us confined.

People trying their best just to get by

never enough even with efforts combined

People, who in dreaming someday might fly

Often come crashing down when their dreams do die
