His mind like a deciduous forest
has shed all its leaves
in the blighting autumnal blast.
It is bare - dismally barren

Your poem is a revealing story concerning reality. Life can be and is most times, bitter and sweet, due to the inability to reason. Many are suffering from the can't help it.
u have done it again....every word pierces the myth of our existence......reminding us how vulnerable indeed we r....brain the mass of identity.... the cells gone demented and a whole life goes into oblivion of existing non existence.....touching and humbling.....
Very emotional and appealing. Thanks for the breaking news... your note on the poem. ha! I like it from the beginning to the end. You write with such control over words... Well done!
A beautiful and touching poem on a horrifyingly sad illness. Kudos to Valsa!
Alzheimer is one of the most common forms of dementia mostly prevalent in western countries, guess what people of subcontinent very rarely suffer from Alzheimer, while millions are spent on research the answer to Alzheimer lies in yellow Indian spice 'TURMERIC', Now coming to poem, it is just wonderful, I am wondering how you wrote so much on this topic, Keep going Ma'am,10/10 for this :)
a poet's words can make so much difference to this world. thanks Valsa for remembering and sharing with us.
we really cursed to be pained in; ; ; ; ; ; ; Like a kite afloat in the boundless sky moving nowhere, but as the wind directs, cut out from the past, turned from the present
dead to sounds that disturb, deaf to songs that soothe A thoughtful poem for those who need all attention and help. Poem is full of compassion. Thank you.
A great tribute to pitiable souls on the World Alzheimer's Day......Valsa...... a very touching piece crafted with very compassionate words as they need world's support and empathetic concern.......great write as always...10/10
To me it's a symbolic poem. The world is a forest facing its autumn and heading towards winter when life will almost be destroyed as it was destroyed earlier and a few will be in the Noah's Arc, the lucky survivals. After that spring will come again on the earth. I take it as a timely warning. I take it as a calculated forecast. The world is now full of demented souls, some are demented in selfish nationalism, some are demented in religious extremism, and, some are demented in thirst of wealth. Nature now may become a punishing master as her slaves have now become extraordinarily independent.
A well composed poem on crazy soul as they suffer with senselessness, Alzheimer..like a baby -no sense so the case with grown up like George Fernandez is suffering with same thank you brought here and reminded
" Loitering on roads without hurrying feet with no bliss coming on the way to run or hasten to embrace..." There is no need to fear at all. Journey can be beautiful and a soul should gear up. Soul should realize self power and soul should trust on God at each moment. Road is lit by God. By his wisdom we get path of righteousness. This poem is beautifully and excellently penned....10
