Common denominator

I walked today with two ladies
bumbling along a beautiful country road
somewhere - anywhere

We saw thistles and clear blue skies
rallying at random chattering
somewhere - anywhere

We are what the French would say
women of a certain age
somewhere - anywhere

We described our different roads
of a life - out of a mother's womb
somewhere - anywhere

Thrown together in a blink in time
yet motherhood and grandmother hood
somewhere - anywhere

Each with our own background
so different and yet a sisterly bond
somewhere - anywhere

From the Pyrenees to Albion
via the Netherlands and North
somewhere - anywhere

Three ladies on a country road
from birth to grave bound one day
somewhere - anywhere
