The Jigsaw Puzzle

How old am I, remind me of my name?

Who is that face in the photo frame?

I’m told that I live here now, is that so?

What’s the date today, as I don’t know?

 

Why is this jigsaw puzzle on my tray?

What is my problem, will it go away?

Why are these strangers kissing me?

Why are they upset as tears I can see?

 

It’s getting severe this memory lapse.

I need somebody kind to fill in the gaps.

Will they wrap me all up for a day out?

Oh, how did this confusion come about?

 

Why has the clock stopped on the wall?

I’m struggling to make any sense of it all.

I say ‘Goodnight’ but I’m not sure who to.

What’s gone so wrong, I wish that I knew?

 

(take care and treasure each day you are healthy in body and mind )

If only we could spend our collective wealth on curing / preventing such distressing conditions, instead of killing and destroying lives.
