yoda smiled as his ears flew off his head
ha ha ha
dementia sparks a humorous chord
when you are fighting for your life

a baby won't sleep
and a lover is near, yet too far away
it's an insane world
and the voices seem to never go away

close your eyes and dream
Dear Heart
(that's my Grandmother's name... listen closely)
you are loved for you

bad hours can happen
but bad days are not allowed here anymore
the days of swine and roses
shall be replaced with love and proses

come into the light
i often dwell here too
my insanity threatens, but
i push it aside like countless other things i no
longer need

the dove misses her raven
she is nearby; never too far
listen to the gentle wind
it is bringing her heart to you...

Author's Note: my husband and i had a conversation whilst he was at work... he was feeding a toy Yoda's ears into his desk fan...
