“Clear as a bell” …I’ve pondered
A bell? It’s solid! I wondered.
Why not say, a window or glass
Simple thinking …alas!
No abstract thinking here
Pure and simple…Alzheimer’s…I fear!
Too close…to the abyss
Causes thinking…like this!

Our Christmas Tree
You’re like a Christmas bulb
Bright when lights are shining
But when lights go down
Dark and gloomy all around.
You’re in the center of the tree
Enjoying christmas cheer
When other bulbs fall or break
You hold tight … persevere.
Like a bulb, you’re fragile
It could happen to you too
You hold tight…the tree of life
The inner strength…in you!
