Now
The new snow
Falls softly
On all my yesterdays
In winter fields

Yo John,

I retired early at 55, and I'm now 72, and plan to live to at least 200.

It's the wisest thing I ever did for myself.  I've loved it, and plan to continue loving it, writing books, and enjoying being the hood patriarch.

The new snow is falling on my yesterdays too, John. Beautiful way of thinking about it.
