three old women

Three old women
Grey, white & brown
Laughing
Leaving a work of intrigue
To meet my eye
Each walks home in differing directions
Struggling
Climbing a broken road
They’ve ascended a century before

Three old women
Grey, white & brown
Silent
Leaving a world of unknown
To meet my eye
Each one walks with steps of a different past
Struggling
Overcoming the harsh times
They’ve held a century before

Three old women
Grey, white & brown
Scurrying
Leaving a world of ageless beauty
To meet my eye
Each one walks off carrying weightless baggage
Struggling
Enduring an uphill battle
They’ve conquered a century before

Three old women
Grey, white & brown
