Refuting br D.R Geraint Jones” Let me not see old age” br br God grant that I live to my centenary. br When I was young and strong I thought I knew br everything that would be of use to me. br Indulged myself as youth is wont to do br I took my simple pleasures casually, br but slow advancing age has forced me to br consider my future path most seriously br I recognise some things which I must do. br I must greet each day optimistically br Although I know that they may be very few br There is so much I want to say and see. br Every day I discover something new. br Although I lack youthful agility br I still retain mental ability. br br 19-Aug-07br br ivor or ivor.
