01.16 Sumanā, who went forth when old [Grandma Sumana] (16)

Norman

16. Lie down happily, old lady, clad in the garment which you have made; for your desire is stilled; you have become cool, quenched.

Weingast

After

all those years

looking after others,

this old heart

has finally

learned

to look

after

itself.

Each act of kindness

a stitch in this warm blanket

that now covers me

while I sleep.
