The Alley

Good write. If we do go down that alley, which many of us do, and come out we will be a stronger better person for it.

There is so much to be seen in that artwork, the more i look the more I see - brilliant.

I wouldn\'t go down that alley no matter how many went with me. Not when there so many other well lit alleys. ; )

This poem reminded me of a Copacabana gallery at night when the stores are closed and if you live there at the building or you need to visit someone there, it gives me chills just to think. I\'ve been in that alley someday. I had to literally run with my heart racing. Awesome writing.

Great, great writing, WL! For these kind of alleys I have two Samoan friends who are built like linebackers!

We all must go down our dark alleys alone. This one sounds like a particularly challenging one, for sure! Well penned, WL!

Accidental Poet said:

Very heartfelt WL. My adoptive mother passed from Alzheimer\'s disease and she too would ask the same questions every 5 minutes. It\'s not an easy thing to watch your parent slowly lose touch with reality. Have you seen the movie \"Still Alice\" with Julianne Moore? In it she is younger and it\'s hard to watch. But I had to watch it. My mother was 80, so many of the things she couldn\'t remember didn\'t matter much to her. I realized how fortunate she was to not get the disease until later in life. I wish you and your mom peace and love in her remaining time here with you.

WL, this is one of the most beautifully written poems I ever read about a loved one with Alzheimers.
My mom had a big stroke and dementia before she passed away. And this poem reminded me so much of these last years. There was sadness and sorrow, but there was also joy and happiness during the few lucid moments she had. Thank you!

Beautiful poem. A tribute to your dear mother. Wishing you strength to deal with this illness. My mother died at age 85 and her head was perfect but she had really bad osteoporosis.

So beautifully written I got the chills and I almost cried. My mother is gone. You are so courageous in this fight! Like Goldfinch I hope that you and your mother find peace.

The Sun shine through the love blended honey, the Sun lit the fire in the leaves, wait for the wind to blow.
Such a beautiful autumn color in the paint and a mysterious poem.

Super painting and a great poem to go with it - super work Bill. Took 5 paintings to a local gallery this morning - they only wanted 4 so asked them to chose - they took all 5 plus 3 coastal sculptures so fingers crossed.
