in the unequal measures
and a stranger's stolen smile
in dementia's locked treasures
and the sunset that sons defiled
lies the unreturnedness they call life

It's amazing what an evening spent at an old age home can do to kick some perspective back into one's life.

true.. the entire journey of spiritual growth is that journey to the actual true nature they call home..

Have written some thing too.. you might want to give it a go
