Welcome to this friendly poetry site Ruth - - your first poem makes a heart-rending read and reminds us of the many who are confined to a state of dementia - - -the question you pose in the verse is something we all want to ask when visiting care homes - hoping your friend is still able to find music a comfort . Thanks for sharing and look forward to reading more of your work.

WELCOME RUTH ~ Thanks for your first Poem which I enjoyed because you tell it like it really is ~ and pose the QUESTION \"Might it happen to you or me ?\" Statistically the answer is YES unless you DIE before you are 70 !
I\'m 35 (Angela my Fiancee is 30) so weve (theoretically) got more than 30 years to raise a Family ~ and enjoy life together ! I teach 18 - 40\'s so I dont see many 70+ except at our Pensioners Club (Silver Surfers) at College who (in the main) are \"good for their AGE !\". In our Church & Extended Familes we have several who have outlived their Physical & Mental Faculties and (as you say in your Poem) it is very sad to see them in their decline. In my PRIVATE PRAYERS I ask the LORD to take them Home to Glory to relieve them of their Pain & Senility ! ANGELA is a Physiotherapist & a Masseuse so her JOB is keeping People of all ages Active & Supple. People in Retirement Homes love her visits for Music & Movement ! MPS works by mutual reading & commenting ! Please visit our SITE ! Angela is currently on a Work Exchange in New Zealand ! Yours BRIAN (UK)
