| Chats in the Park | |

This poem is attempting to demonstrate the conversations I had with old ladies on a hospital ward who were in the early stages of dementia. To show how a single word can come to represent so many, different memories. I have highlighted these words in the poem to show how a single word caused the conversation to switch seamlessly not particularly logically of course and how all this stories became interwoven into one. "Chats in the Park, Old dear". "Always felt sorry for it, Henry wore a hunters hat Shot hits the mark!" "Stunned it was the hare, foaming soap." "An elegant cut in hope to make the gentlman stare." "Brisk walks, accompanied by the scent of lavender." "She was a lovely woman loved to talk!" Warm room, warm Care Thoughts loom, A life lived.
