Here you will find the Poem Cheery Old Age. of poet Robert Crawford
The old man is not miserable, nay, cheery For such a grey old fellow. Life's still good, And he at many points is yet in touch With the material; and what if now He has not the old energy to sling The passion of his nature off, he can Beat many a fancy from its ambush; tease A knotty problem with the best; in fine, Go up and down the thoroughfares of thought, And nobly don a holiday attire To suit the season.
