The Person Left Behind in The Shadows

“A woman’s hopes are woven of sunbeams; a shadow annihilates them”  George Eliot

She may have been a dancer, a singer, a baker or cook

A seamstress, a crafter, a reader of book

A daughter, a wife, a mother, a grandma

A teacher, a nurse, an instructor of drama

Whoever she was, whatever she did

The hopes and the dreams are forever now hid

Back in the shadows, the shell now displayed

The substance, the person, dementia has slayed
