Yet a Poem Remains

It seems, I've forgotten so much Of what I once knew, So many names and faces Are out of my mind's view... Memories lost In the winds of time Ah, but my heart still Holds a rhyme... Roses and you The sky, delightfully blue. Rainbows and butterflies Stars dancing in midnight sky.. Humming birds twirling In search of nectar sweet Bumble bees, their songs Repeat... Who is that lady? I can't remember her name... I can't find my keys, its alway The same... Did I take this morning's pill? Who was the actor in "Kill Bill?" Oh, I love that singer! I can't recall his name! He is my favorite! He's in the hall of fame! Did I gas up the car yesterday? When did sister dear say she was Coming to stay? Hello! My appointment was yesterday? Please, please don't charge me, Can I come today? "She writes pretty good rhyme" My doctor said... "I think its just age, playing around With her head. Get her more pads and pencils or let her sit at her PC At least her poetry lets her mind run free To be...something SPECIAL! C. Alvez
