Armand

Silver haired sage with a golden tongue Sixty years of wisdom has been gained Today's the day his praises are sung Body and mind have been fully trained He sees the planet in his own way Sixty years of wisdom has been gained Living with purpose able to play Passion is the special gift he gives He sees the planet in his own way He chooses simple in the way he lives People more important than anything Passion is the special gift he gives Happy Birthday together we sing Everyone has their time to be loved People more important than anything Heart that's open a hand ungloved Silver haired sage with a golden tongue Everyone has their time to be loved Today's the day his praises are sung Dedicated to my friend Armand Delisle

Priceless words. Nice that you respect the wisdom of the aged. I like listening to all their stories of long ago. I have got a contest running now; it is called Irish Poems.

As you get older the aged do not seem so old anymore. In the scheme of things even a hundred years is a very short time to be here. We are all so very very young.
