The walk was great,
while dad sat in his wheelchair.
I felt some past memories while I pushed.
I romped him around the nursing home building.
We took the side walk on a sunny breezy day, following Mom.
When we finished, we both took him back inside
the nursing home.
At the light brown birdcage,made of wood and glass.
He cracked a smile, at a baby birdie
and became a little happier.
The others shouted out their bingo game.
Dad sat in his wheelchair and may have been
woolgathering about the zephyr the trees and grass.
Or a best friend that died last year, named Mister Lyle.
Or maybe, just love from mom?

| I think the elderly just want us to be near them in their last days. It is so very important that they know we are their friends. What I see in this poem is a dad with his son. It is unimportant what is going on. |
