the old woman has finished
sweeping the yard.
she feels satisfied with 
how everything was handled 
today.

the last of her sons have left;
as the needed family reunion,
finally, came to an end.
she can have her first 
quiet moment of the day.

how peaceful it is, she thinks;
to be able to simply sit down
and enjoy her solitude;
to BREATHE the clean air,
culled of the raucous banter
of her children and grandkids.

it isn't that they irritate her, 
she loves them;
but their liveliness can be so tiring
to her old bones and her aged heart.
peace is a welcome commodity;
a reward from the long years of
being a mother, a wife, a daughter.

at this old age of seventy, she has,
finally, been given a time to think
of herself, as well;
a time of freedom from the
shackles of womanly duties 
imposed by society. old woman.
