The birds sure are singing a merry tune just now, which I assume is mating season.

Doggerel Dave said:

Thanks Bella for a portrait which is true and to the point, encompassing as it does Both the mystification of the afflicted and the loss suffered by those close to what was someone they knew and loved.
Raises questions which can be very threatening also as we might query our own existence as an autonomous human…..

An insidious illness that strikes at will and shows no mercy. A well written poem. I have worked with many with this illness and it can be heart wrenching.

To Ignorance
sorenbarrett said:

Wonderfully metered and rhymed but more important the message was clearly stated in so many different ways. This truly was a grand poem and one that is so true. I loved it from beginning to end.

Hey Little Kitty
sorenbarrett said:

Dear Bella I loved this poem it holds a good deal of deeper meaning. We had a black cat that our dog loved so much that in licking him, the cat lost all the hair off his bottom half and had to move to our neighbors house to grow it back. I\'ve never known a bad black cat. The only mean cat I knew was all white.

Alzheimers
spilleronsheet said:

Thanks for sharing this thoughtful poetry
Indeed no denial Alzheimer is truly scary
And painful for both the sufferer and their family
And thunderclaps and thousand words of thanks and appreciation for the noble service your delivering
We can’t live the pains for others
But atleast we can do our best to reduce it
And I hope medical science soon finds a cure for it
Amen

I know this to the core Bella, my wife died of dementia and for many years she had become somebody else before her passing gave release to us both.

This is a wonderful informative poem (Well done rhymes by the way) because it is harder to get black cats adopted. Cute. Great job!

This was a wonderful piece that makes the point that each small thing can make a difference if we will pay attention to it and apply it. Such a nice way of getting the point across.

Paul Bell said:

Life sure is a fleeting moment, and sometimes when we have too much time we start to reminisce, though I suppose when time is all we have, those thoughts must be amplified every day.
