On My Rocker

Sitting in my rocking chair I feel myself relax, A quality that every couch Or stool or loveseat lacks. The gentle back and forth harks back To infancy, perhaps, When we were rocked while being fed In moms' and daddies' laps. No matter what the reason There is nothing to compare To an hour spent unwinding In my comfy rocking chair.

There's nothing finer than my recliner. But puts me fast asleep. It's nothing major, rather minor. I think it, I will keep. Rock on ilene. Peace. :)

YOu are like me in so many ways. I just love rocking in a chair or swiveling in a swivel chair. Movement is so nice. Great poem as always, dear.
