Retirement
Now, just a tourist
Spotting and enjoying beauty
Whatever, Wherever, Whenever
Interested in seeing,
not seen
Not on the stage but in the audience
Enjoying, not entertaining
……retired from efforts
Of controlling world outside
An attitude not a stage in life

It sounds like you have just retired. Nice to be able to enjoy life....not control the world outside.
Yes, retirement gives us the priceless gift of time.......this poem definitely resonates with me! Enjoy being "in the audience" kiddo!
Nice. Enjoy!
Indeed it is an attitude. Nicely captured.
The way you put it makes retirement sound ideal!
Sir, you won it with, "An attitude not a stage in life"
Beautifully expressed. *smiles*
