PostPoems Be Artistic. Be Creative. Be Inspired!

I remember before.

Before the holes,

Before the gaps,

Before the help,

Before the demon,

Before the disease,

Before the Alzheimers.

I remember before.



I remember the playground

“Help your sister up”

I remember the playroom

“Share the toys, girls”

I remember the Worthers

“Don’t run with candy”

I remember the hugs

“Be safe and have fun”

I remember the help

“What’s your homework?”

I remember the love

“I love you granddaughter”



I remember before.

Before the holes,

Before the gaps,

Before the help,

Before the demon,

Before the disease,

Before the Alzheimers.

I remember before.
