We do not count a man's years,

            until he has nothing else to count.

                  Age is quality of mind.

            If you left your dreams behind,

                   If you no longer look ahead,

            If your ambition's fires are dead.....

                     Then you are old !

              But if in life you take the best ,

             And if in life you keep the zest,

                    If  love you hold,

             No matter how the years go by,

            No matter how the birthdays fly....

                    You are not old!
