I wanted to share some thoughts and ideas from my collection: I would describe the piece as a heart breaking, yet endearing collection of an elderly woman\u2019s life. It is a collection celebrating the final year of an elderly lady\u2019s life, with emotional stanzas and heartfelt lines, a time for reflection and goodbyes.<\/span><\/p>\n

Let’s take a more in depth look at what you can expect from the book:<\/p>\n

A beloved Grandmother, with many stories to share spanning over ninety years of a life well-lived. It\u2019s her Granddaughter that picks up the pen to write the final chapter of her tale. Initially when her life is flipped upside down, Mel decides to document her Grandmother\u2019s journey through a series of poems. As time went on, and things got progressively worse, the poems took a different turn. The poems follow an extraordinary lady through the last year of her life. There are the good days and the bad days, but mixed with light hearted humour, just as her Grandmother would have wanted. References made to dementia are open and honest, and make the collection a relatable one for many. Nothing is explicitly stated, it is down to the reader\u2019s interpretation. The poems are ordered on the dates they were written to correspond with real time. But \u2018those we love don\u2019t go away, they walk beside us every day.\u2019<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
