[hometext] => This is about a woman with the beginnings of Alzheimers Disease.
[bodytext] => Her body is sound, its her mind that slips
Her memory has gaps but she remembers snips With hard cold reality she tries to come to grips Holding rosary beads, she whispers a prayer A single tear wells up in her eye She holds it back, trying not to cry Failing miserably, she continues to try It becomes to much to bare A solitary drop glides down her face Unknown to her, it enhances her grace That silvery furrow is so out of place This show of emotion is so rare No one senses her pain inside The hurt and the fear that she's trying to hide Vulnerability is something she's always denied This is turmoil without compare A lifetime of longing sears her soul Dreams unfulfilled takes its toll Fading away, she no longer feels whole Of reality, she becomes unaware Her heart holds memories that time can't erase A whirlwind waltz in a far away place The warmth and compassion of a lovers embrace She exhales a quiet sigh of despair While locked into memories, the tears fall like rain She's slowly and quietly driven insane The world around her continues, mundane For senility, there is no repair.

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. ©
