5.) Continued neurogenesis

 


The link to potential brain repair,


The connection of learning and memory and we have a mighty glare.


Choo choo goes the train,

Not all areas endure heavy rain,


What could be this stunning aspect of our beautiful brain?


The birth of neurons and their wonderful add-ons.


It continues in the adult human brain even going into old age,


That seems to be a lovely page.


Sharp as Damascus,

This ongoing process is particularly found in the hippocampus.


Neurogenesis is suppressed or absent in those with Alzheimer's disease,


A simple comprehension, there is definitely an advantage for therapeutic intervention.


Although it continues in life without a frown, As one gets older, it actually slows right down.


A small emphasis,

The goal is to avoid a precipice,


A sanction with gentleness,


Exercise, diet and a couple of crosswords and we could now be healthy and adventurous,

New neurons even while we old,

Oh dear body, how are you so generous?


With no time for the venomous,


We conclude with continued neurogenesis.
