AN ODE TO ME ON MY 86th

Why not to a man still strong, still bold,
who's gone through hell and been through fire.
Who's not yet ready to be placed on a pyre.

Who shakes off pains, sees suns not rains,
who loves his wife and children three.

Who thinks, who reads, still thirsty for knowledge
and who may consider going back to college.

That's all good folks, that's simply me.
