she cannot complain
what she will leave is that happy feeling
that beauty and grace have been transmitted to
her grandchildren
if she dies, she is complete
she asks for nothing more
her children have given her more than a bouquet of fresh flowers from the garden
she is happy now and will be even happier for another hour perhaps
resting her tired body on that sofa looking at the kids playing
she rests her head upon a pillow
and then closes her eyes
not wishing to wake up anymore for
another painful day....
