Absolutely love this one, Yvonne. This is definitely a shifting of gears, and of course written in your signature superb rhyme and metre, and there was another one? Well who knew?
Great job and this definitely brought a big smile to my face. :))

I wrote on for the club and missed the rhyme scheme in the first stanza. No one pointed it out except Jim. Since I'd written this earlier, well you know what it said in my notes. lol
Thanks for a lovely review.

"Changing Gears", is an exceptionally well-written and delightfully descriptive piece. With craft and skill this talented poet has told it as it is. I l look forward to seeing your next post.

. . . and you earned every nano second of your retirement, Yvonne. You expressed your thoughts and feelings well. Great job with the style of the entwined poetry. Your words flow smoothly, the rhymes work well, the details of the things that occupy your time are great, and your poem was fun to read. You and your sweet kitties are doing a fantastic job. I believe your kitties could write a poem, too. Your image choice words nicely. I like the color scheme--light and bright and filled with fun. Your 'to do' list has become history. Now it is 'won't do'.
Thanks for sharing.
Respectfully, Jan

I like the rhyme pattern and I enjoyed the picture that you chose. Your words were deliberate yet non-chalante. I enjoyed the fact that you have finally got it right. You go girl! This was very well done and very much enjoyed.

I'm with you. My refrigerator isn't screaming because I haven't cleaned it, and the bathroom floor won't mind waiting to be mopped. I know we'd both rather be writing. Good for you for kicking back and reading. You did an excellent job with the entwined form and your rhyme worked out perfectly. judi

And get it right you have. I was so sorry i had to comment adversly on your previous attempt this form because, like this, it was a good poem but you just failed to get all the twists and entwinements right. That was then. This is now and it is great.

You were totally right in point that out. I never mind being told when I'm wrong. I don't always go back and change it because I'm posting for fun and not trying to achieve any awards, etc. Thank you for this wonderful review and stars. (Now you know how lazy I am.) lol.

I'm 64 years old and this poem hits me very personally. I like the details of what makes up this final stage of your life. there is a feeling a quiet contentment to the poem. thanks for the read.

Thank you. The upside of getting old. I'll soon be 78. I've paid my dues. hahaha. I do have a cleaning lady, though.

I think you always get the form right! Enjoyed the relaxing poem about the "change in gears" between young motherhood and retirement days with the kitties. Thank the Lord for quiet days when "work is banned."
