[hometext] => For Aunt Patty, Hollywood and other victims of Alzheimer's Disease
[bodytext] => Her memory is not what it used to be She asks the same questions over and over She forgets the name of both you and me She can't remember the past, oh the bother To some, it's so aggravating, so disturbing You feel anger to repeat the same answers You forget that she used to love to sing She was a great cook, quite the dancer Her life is rich with much history to explore But sometimes, it's easier to close that door To pull the stories out, takes such tender care Oh, what we'll gain, such hope she'll share The memories are still fresh in her heart It just takes a little patience, love to start As with the innocence of children, so is she Her soul can see the truth that is to be This terrible disease may think it has won Its tightening grip can be lessened, maybe undone Stop, open the ears within your heart and mind All her beauty, joy, love will soon begin to unwind Her mind may be a little slow on the uptake You'll have to repeat things more than twice It's worth it; oh, the wonder that is at stake I'm willing to spend the time at triple the price [comments] => 3 [counter] => 145 [topic] => 55 [informant] => dvtpdw [notes] => [ihome] => 0 [alanguage] => english [acomm] => 0 [haspoll] => 0 [pollID] => 0 [score] => 0 [ratings] => 0 [editpoem] => 1 [associated] => [topicname] => dedicatedpoems )

Poetry is much like a great photo, a single "moment in time" capturing many feelings and emotions. Yet, they are very alive; creating stirrings within the readers who form visual "pictures" of the expressed emotions within the Poem. ©
