As far as I know Burns didn’t write about retirement, which is a pretty recent concept, historically. People didn’t really retire in the 18th century – they simply got too old to work.
That said, though, there are a few poems, such as Nature’s Law or Prospect of Death, that you might be able to take a few stanzas from that would work.
