There is an internal conflict, as "the old lady," the grandmother, who lives with her married son, his wife and their three children.

Not even the children are happy in the “ideal house.” Later the poem says: “I saw her yesterday at forty-three, her children gone, her husband one year dead, toying with plots to kill time and re-wed illusions of lost opportunity." She realizes that it is too late to go back and choose a different path, but she wonders what her life would have been like if she had chosen differently.
