As she stood facing out the window there were other thoughts and sounds of the air, the singing of the birds, and other people outside her house that caused her mind to wander away from the death of her husband. "Suspension of intelligent thoughts" may mean that although there were patches of blue sky, there would be other blue skies to come. "Free body and soul free" meant that there was more outside of the life she led with her husband. "She was drinking in a very elixir of life through that open window." This means that the outside life seemed to be more fulfilling than her life in the past with her husband.
The character seems to be looking out a window rather distracted by the sounds of the outdoors. Although there were other sounds around her, she seemed to have lost memories of her husband. "One was singing reached her faintly" may have been a way that her husband was trying to reach her, through the song of a bird.
"Suspension of intelligent thought" could mean that even though there are patches of blue sky, even though it isn't a reflection it could mean that there are more blue skies in the future, she just can't see them yet.
"Free, body and soul free" means that now she can see more blue skies ahead.
"She was drinking in a very elixir of life through the open window." Because she is starting to look outside her house towards freedom and a new beginning.
