Sixty Years

                                       Has it really been sixty years?

                                       How quickly time passes

                                       The world and weather have changed

                                       As well as the age of the masses

                                        My knees have been replaced

                                        I have a walker that tells the tale

                                        My cataracts too are gone

                                        Now I can see where I went wrong

                                         I thought old age would be a blast

                                         It didn’t turn out that way

                                         I lost too many friends

                                         As did you, who are here today

                                         So let’s enjoy the time we have left      

                                         Say “I love you” to those you hold dear

                                          I love you classmates said I

                                          While grinning from ear to ear
