I like this poem because it is kind of short, and it has a meaning to it. She has lived in that house since forever, and when she finds a grey hair she knows that once before that 3 other woman have lived in that house. She is picturing herself becoming old, and one day she wont be there anymore, her grand kids will.

I love this. It was so powerful and deep, well 2 me anyway. And yet from being those 2 things it was still so very short.
