I've got a new best friend Evidently she lived a life of sin I wrote a poem of a former venture she was on It turned into her first day at the nursing home ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Today she was sad and lost She had misplaced her purse Let go of her life at such a cost ~~~~~~~~~~~ She was wandering round Asking the nurses and administrators for help In a state of panic, searching for the lost-n-found. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~ I took her to the cafeteria
Where we were doing crafts Hoping I could change the channel of her mind Panic would pass ~~~~~~~ She told me of the hardships she has lived thru How she resided in her car for years Now it was wrecked and she had No one to live with she knew ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ She told me her plan was to leave this hotel Right before dark Sneak back in and sleep in a closet As quiet as a lark ~~~~~~~~ I told her I happen to know The manager of this hotel They'll give you a room if You'll be part of the show ~~~~~~~~~~~~ You should have seen the smile on her face Oh Yes, she is A woman of grace ~~~~~~~~~ She told me Thanks My name is June I told her she is my new best friend I will come see you soon Then I wheeled her in chair to her room ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ 2/27/2015~ Today I found out June is now in a four star hotel called heaven. I sure will miss you June~~~~~~~~~~
Alzheimer's can be scary and happy in just a blink of an eye.
