Just An Ordinary Rocking Chair
Just an ordinary chair
siting by the wall
rocking back and forth so slowly
yet not going anywhere at all
plain brown upholstery
with a handle on its side
and simple standard stitching
where loose change goes to hide
sagging seats and stains
and faded fabric around
it's really a surprise
it hasn't fallen to the ground
just an ordinary chair
is all that people see
but because of who sat there
it means so much to me
