Rocking Chair
Squeaking rocking chair
Telling its story
Many families know
Passed dark nights of soul
Each creek a worry expressed
Released from wood deep in grain
Arms worn smooth over generations
Comfort found in motion
A parent's fear dissipated
A son's anxiety transferred
Therapy of rocking
Cleansing the soul
