I Love All This Free Time

I love all this free time
No more meeting the deadlines
I can sleep till late
No more driving through bad weather which I hate
I have time to smell the roses
Even planting them is now one of my choices
I now feel life's rhythm
Enjoying the simplest things
Relishing what every moment can offer
In it finding meaning that is deeper
Happy, sad, nice, or awful
Any experience I am grateful
Now I have time to reflect and to feel more
Everything I care to explore
A time for everything even being bored
For the time I have I am now its lord.
