The Rocking Chair
Tonight's lavender sky and golden hues
of speckled, dancing light have lured me -
find me comforted within curved back
and double scooped seat
as wooden floorboards hypnotize,
rhythmically soothe -
and I, wrapped within knitted afghan,
cradled in memories and fanciful thoughts,
sigh. I could sit here forever.

What crazy dreamlike colors! I love fanciful thoughts and dreaming in color.
Wrapped up in womb-like comfort in the arms of your rocker. A beautiful way to spend an august evening. Always happy to see you, Margaret.
Oh this is wonderful - a moment to wish for, but maybe one we pass if we don't grab it...
I have felt these feelings almost exactly. You brought me back to some wonderful memories. Thank you!
Me too, a rocker on a porch brings back good memories. The rocker picture is stunning! Is it yours?
Sigh. Me, too.
I took the photo and used an app. It is not my porch or specific rocking chair - it's the view from my beauty salon on the mountains - but I do have a nice porch and comfy chair and cool mountain evening fresh air!
Is that your painting? I LOVE it!!!
This is a wonderful poem. Now I want a rocking chair. :P
Such a lovely view and I could sit there forever too ~ Hope you are well Margaret ~ Enjoy your weekend. ~
Oh what a comfortable and soothing moment, described so well. Lovely image to accompany it as well.
I know the feeling, and I could get all wrapped up in it.
Pleasant memories can certainly be a good elixir to be just rocking away thinking about them! Rightly so Marge!
