Hi Sona, thanks for your posting
I cringe at the thought of meeting others in person,
Yet as a television engineer I excelled and
Always treated others with respect and kindness.
Party's was something I took the wife too.
But in reality I never stood out but blended into the background.

Any surgery is a tough option,
My heart goes out to you.
It may seem there's tough times ahead,
Then again if there's no other options.
Personally I think I'd prefer surgery,
I now there's a lot of what if's your going through.
But if all goes smoothly it takes about a month
to recover. But no more swinging from the chandler.
Dear Isabel. ( hope I've spelt your name right )
Only I seem to forget names these days.
Take care hugs and kisses from
Alan and the rest of his tribe.

Hi Ken
Most of my writing and rhymes,
Comes from inspirational creativity
Of things I see or hear.
A single word can sometimes
Invoke a poem or a story.
Keep doing what you're doing Ken,
I'll try to do the same.
Regards Alan.

Sometimes ken I feel they don't give the author
Enough credit on some tv programs and films
If they mention their names at all
It's normally in the smallest print

The church bell's no longer wring.
But I could hear them as I read your poem,
Sundays were always a day to look forward to.
Thanks for sharing Elle.

Hi Allen.
I live 15 minutes away from a supermarket,
20 minutes if I take the car. Another 5 minutes
while I hunt for a disability spot for my wife.
We also get carelled into a que like cattle,
It seems it's the same all over.

It's a very difficult one considering your past
As long as you haven't any regrets
After his passing. You can choose your friends
Unfortunately your stuck with your family

Hi Jim
So much time learning,
I wish I could say the same.
I was 18 before i knew,
How to spell my name.
( Alan was on my birth certificate),
Not Allan as I used to spell it.

There are many of us outside of life,
That understand how you must feel.
It's sad to think that even though she wanted
a day at the beach. She wouldn't have remembered it,
I would love to say for me ,This is a memorable poem.
But with mixed dementia I can't remember the poem's
That I've written. My heart goes out to you.
Regards Alan

I agree with Lawrence on this subject
But there's nothing so lonely as sitting in a crowded room,
Eating a meal for one, While watching the midday sun.
As for me, I don't know if it's my physical makeup
Even with family round me, the loneliness never goes away.
But it slowly gets better having friends on poetbay bay.
Hugs& xxx IB M REGARDS FROM THE HEART
FROM Alan and his tribe.

I'm so sorry that you had to live through this,
My problem's pale into insignificance compared to
what you had to endure. Your such a brave girl
to be able to confront your past in such a positive way.
Many regards from Alan and the rest of his tribe xxx

You should see my grandson, skinny as a rack
He lives on junk food. Personally it doesn't matter
What size you are, it's what's inside that counts.
If carol has a meal at lunch time she's too full.
Me I have a well cultivated beer belly.
Without drinking the beer.
Regards Alan and Carol.
