I think of my mother as her Alzheimer’s progressed, tilting at the windmills of her mind. You couch it brilliantly, Ron.

Thanks Selma. Yes, there is a certain level of satisfaction and gratification when all the pieces fall into place. Looking forward to reading yours.

And lookie here, it is perfecto! I adore the picture and the poem. Lovely.
Incidentally, I wrote one last week, ((not published yet)) with the theme of memories as well. Words like Quixote and windmills are in there. (how cool is that) Well, I find it cool. Yours is spectacular, and the picture… aww. Thanks for sharing it Ron.

Thanks Ingrid. I’m not sure if Don Quixote had Alzheimer’s, was just plain crazy, or had a very vivid imagination, but I thought it would work well the subject matter.
