Retirement
I’ve found the door
started looking last year
made my way through the room
straightening my files
smoothing my skirt
changing shoes
grabbing my hat and sunglasses
moving toward the portal
reaching, turning, pushing
toward the next chapter

Congratulations, Kim!
Love this reflection on your transistion.
Thereās a tenderness maybe some tentativeness, taking a moment, in this line:
āsmoothing my skirtā
and then the crescendo:
“grabbing my hat and sunglassesā
Enjoy!
