Missing
By Linda Straub
I was on my way homeand saw you runningacross the road,hands on your head,tears streamingdown your face,and I knewshe had walked away,into the heartof her familiaryet foreign world.Together, we combedthe neighborhooduntil day faded into night.Suddenly, there she was,standing on the corner,unafraid and unaware,under the street lamp'samber, artificial light,coat collar turned up,grey hair blowingin the evening breeze,found, yet forever lost.Alzheimer's Poem Copyright © March, 2011 by Linda C Straub, All rights reserved
