Reflecting Back: Patricia & Dennis Bayley — Poetry, Chemistry, and Connection at The Village of Taunton Mills
As part of our 10th Anniversary of #ElderWisdom, we’re revisiting one of our most joyful episodes — a conversation with Patricia and Dennis Bayley from The Village of Taunton Mills in Whitby. In this encore episode, hosts Erin Davis and Lloyd Hetherington share the Green Bench with Patricia and Dennis for a laughter-filled conversation about poetry, chemistry, and a lifetime of travel and discovery. From their volunteer work in Thailand and First Nations communities to Dennis’s experiment reclaiming his left-handedness and Patricia’s beautiful poetry, their story celebrates curiosity, creativity, and connection at every stage of life. “If someone says we can’t do something, that is when we start doing it.” – Dennis Bayley “It’s not only the writing of the poem. It’s holding onto your breath while you think, rhubarb, rhubarb, rhubarb…” – Patricia Bayley As we reflect on 10 years of #ElderWisdom, we’re reminded by Patricia and Dennis that lifelong learning and laughter are the keys to keeping the spirit young. 🎧 Listen again to their inspiring story and rediscover the joy of connection on the Green Bench.Learn more at elderwisdom.ca
