The Great Six-O (Polite Version)

I wrote the original version of this poem on the occasion of my 50th birthday, in 1993. When I reached sixty, I changed the title from "The Great Five-O" to "The Great Six-O." It is under the latter title it appears in my "Outrageous Poems," (a pleasurable read). Today, I put music to the poem and replaced some slightly impolite words in this version.
