Still Rhyming at Ashby Ponds Robert Olander

ÒWinding DownÓ is one way of describing my life and the lives of my friends here in our retirement community. Ans and I moved into Ashby Ponds four years ago and have thoroughly enjoyed life in what feels like a permanently moored cruise ship. Although the subject matter is largely influenced by my fellow residents, it includes occasional glimpses of the outside world. I trust that this latest collection still brings new insight into the human condition with particular emphasis on aging. This collection of short rhyming poems is arranged alphabetically, and includes birthday and holiday wishes, eulogies, patriotic and religious observations, vignettes of fellow residents and much more, all in rhyme.
