Point Of View Poem by Dorsey Baker

She is having her
usual breakfast
black coffee
scrambled eggs
and dry toast
the nosey sun
is peeping through
her window
she is fully awake
and fully alert!
she welcomes daybreak and the morning
she slowly
rises
from her chair
she can walk around
with the help of a stick
she feels confident
she is somebody's grandma
living in her own house
independently!
she takes good care of herself
she has lived long enough
to know
that life
is pretty much
give and take
in other words
"live and let live! "
