Explanation:
In this poem the poet tells us that the life of an old woman which was full of freedom enjoyment and abundance is becoming limited ,caged and imprisonment by the advancing of time or moments in the nursing home. She is losing hope for life to be better or rewarding in any sense. She is just not living but passing time watching days go by slipping out of her hand. Death is approaching her. The circle of life is becoming shorter and shorter by each passing day.
So we must do whatever we have to do or find urgent or useful everyday as we will not be given another spare day to complete our activities.
