The View from the Mantelpiece

The View from the Mantelpiece. I've been waking up at sunrise / I've been following the light across my room / I watch the night receive the room of my day . . ." (Paul Simon). Sunday, July 12, 2015. Strange to say about a 95-year-old with advanced dementia, but at times I almost forget she has. It's an ineffable feeling that a veil has been lifted, not permanently but for now she was not ready to say goodbye, it seems a veil that has partially occluded her vision for some time. When sundown pales the sky.
