And she cries, For the loss of a gentle man. This greedy world she defies, To have known such a man of kindness and love, All that is left is his shining star spangled skies above! .......touching expression with lofty theme. Beautiful poem. Visited time and again. Thanks for sharing.

Alzheimer's. No evil tyrant can come up with a worse torture than this disease that tears down the person and destroys the sweet memories or at least covers them up with pain for the family of the victim... but I am encouraged to see there was still star-spangled skies to remind the survivor of this lovely man and the love they shared most every night..

A very touching write Hazel! As he suffered from Alzheimer, he couldn't even recognize her towards the end! But she has only sweet memories of him who remained a gentleman through out! Now after his death, she misses him greatly and looks at the star spangled sky which he loved much, may be to spot him!

Over the vast dark bog with twinkling stars above, Her man dies Everyday he looks at her without hope or recognition Only confusion from Alzheimer's ammunition, I have seen so many old persons who been suffering from alzheimer diseases, loss of memory and disability to recognize the loved ones is really painful for the loved ones. Hazel Durham has successfully described these pains, and wrote a touching poem.

Night would definitely fall on watching with stars in memories. Shining star spangle skies above! Her man dies and in every look she thinks about twinkling of stars. For loss of gentleman she cries. This poem amazingly carries grief and joy. This is excellently penned with expression of emotion...10
