Linda, I used to be a nurse's aide and I've seen what happens to many when they grow old--sometimes the only "real" family they have is the staff at the facility where they live. The "blood" family often only shows up on holidays, if that often. This is a beautiful and empathetic poem.
Love, Susan

Growing old has its rewards and sorrows. I feel the pain in your write that happens all too often in this materialistic and throw away society we live in.

You poem brings to mind an ancient Indian (American) tradition where, when a person got to a certain point in their life they had to leave the tribe and go off alone to die. You coherent words made me realize that we are still sending our old ones away. Sometimes things stay the same.

Wow.
Just had to leave my Dad in a nursing home for the first time tonight.
I knew it was where he "belonged."
When I got home all I felt was I belonged with him.
We may be where we belong, but it never feels that way.
I always love your heart Linda.
