In Memory of Keith Sagar

Excerpt from "Beautiful Old Age" by DHL

"It ought to be lovely to be old
to be full of the peace that comes of experience
and wrinkled ripe fulfilment.
. . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . .
And a young man should think:  By Jove
my father has faced all weathers, but it's been a life!"

(Poems, 503)
