This is my second collection of poems that are a mixture of experiences in South Africa and returning to the United Kingdom twice to visit my elderly mother and aunt. Eventually, they both had to go into care homes. My mother had senile dementia, and my aunt had arthritis and memory failure. I gave them Reiki healing, which eased their pain and renewed their energy levels. Writing these poems helped me come to terms with the sadness associated with aging but also making the best of it. I pray this book may uplift and encourage others going through the many trials of life.
