The Gray

When I am old 
with time to while away
I shall sit at the window
A day much like today

The sky and the rain 
Both present
and Gray
But my heart will 
be warm on 
a day like today

My wrinkles crease 
as a pass a while
as the drops pluck the window
tis a misty eyed smile

Ill look back on the days
of trouble and strife
days of mothering
of working 
of being a wife

Through the laughter 
the hardships 
lifes quags
and it's mires
and be warmed 
for the best 
was my childhood hearth
and it's fires
