"When I'm 64"

Today is my 64th birthday. I feel about 18 or 20. That was my age when I first heard the Beatles song, when 64 sounded like such a long way off. I am very fortunate that I am healthy, vigorous, active and creative. During my 64th year (I suppose it is actually my 65th year coming up) I will do a lot of writing and make major progress on four books I hope to publish. As Isaac Dennisen wrote, "I will write a little every day, without hope and without despair."
Here is a nice version by Julian Lennon:
