Dementia Care
Explore a collection of heartfelt and poignant dementia poems that capture the range of emotions, struggles, and experiences that come with this condition.
If you’d like to explore your feelings around dementia through poetry, there’s no right or wrong way to start. Grab a pen and paper, or your laptop, and write what you feel. It doesn’t have to rhyme. It can be whatever you want it to be. The act of writing it can be a deeply cleansing process, and the act of sharing it can inspire others to do the same.
Below we’ve shared some heartfelt poems that you can share if you’d like to.
