Time 2
Time 2

On my return to England,
I found myself duty bound
to care for my maternal Gran
in the last stages of her dementia,
a terrible thing that slips
through the gaps in life
to introduce eternity
long before its time.

Free Verse
For Express It In Eight, Sept. 30 2020
Prompt: Time.
Note: It’s called Time 2 because it’s not the first poem I’ve written with that title.
