Reaching the age of 60,
My life has just begun.
I shall carry it on
To heal the ill,
To raise my boys
Both spiritually and physically.
I shall carry it on
To serve as a partner
With Gale.
As I approach the age of 60,
My work has just begun.
Today, I will learn to enjoy
The world which sits at my feet.
