    You are a very talented poet!!! The cadence is complex, yet beautiful, and I never thought of such a thing. But now when I pass certain chairs, I will see memories, ghosts of the past. Brilliant.

    You do this so very well honey. I do see a trend though. You’re missing someone or many. Not sure which, but with each poem I think I’ll come closer to the answer.

    Have a blessed Sunday my friend. Big hugs. ♥♥♥

    Dear Catherine, This poem has really hit home. My mom had a chair like that, that so many of my relatives sat on, laughed and joked sitting in the armchair. It has brought back many memories for me. I just love the way you write and I can feel the passion you have in whatever you write. I also find it so wonderful that you have your son, Michael read it and Tammy took that fabulous photo. They truly support everything you do. God Bless them and you…You really are so very talented. Thanks for sharing and bringing me back to my memories of my mom’s chair. Have a great Sunday! Dottie 🙂

    Catherine , my dear
    ‘The Chair’ just reach out and tug your heart strings , once again just beautiful and so very endearing to the soul , that’s what true poetry do to the soul .

    I do so think Comedy Plus is onto something and I am with it all the way . I wonder which one of us will get it first , Catherine your heart is so full of love for the people that has set in ‘The Chair’ it shows in your poems if people will take the time to look … it’s like the one about the ‘Gate’ , dear Catherine , they are all still there with you , you may not see or feel them but they will always be loved in your heart . Keep writing and sharing and blessing to you and your family ~~Nee~~ ;- D

    Although quite melancholy, such is an integral part of life in this world. Excellent piece!
