Serendipity

When I arrived at Mary Wade this afternoon, the Kimberly residents were all in the Community Room enjoying a concert by the Serendipity Singers, a group of charming young women in blue tee shirts.  Kristen the recreational therapist lent Dad a book of American poetry and we hung out downstairs after the concert and read some poems.  The ones Dad liked best was Oliver Wendell Holmes Sr.'s "One Hoss Shay" and Emily Dickinson's "I'm Nobody! Who are you?"  When we went upstairs, people were listening to Tony Bennett.  Frank sang along (beautifully) to every song.
