As I gaze upon its form
I cannot help but think:
Of all the souls who sat and rocked
Caressing their babes
And praying in sync
With those they loved
With souls they’d lost
Through the years
On this restful chair
They sat and rocked through all the tears
Knowing the sun would appear!
I got the rocker second hand
Tis a treasure for me now
Its presence in our home reminds
That life is short
And so profound
So sit a spell
Enjoy its feel
The back and forth will soothe
Life’s pains and burrs and sudden jars
Life never always smooth
So say a prayer of thanks to God
Abundant gifts He gives.
Stay the course.
Never doubt
And let the grace of God abound!
