A Chair Hug

 My Papasan Chair


Round like a bowl and kinda like a pet bed,

This choice of chair is unconventional, don’t be misled,

You’ve gotta have space to house such a chair,

It’s big and bulky, but I don’t care,

It’s like sitting on a floating cloud,

It’s hard to even overcrowd,

A grandmother and two grandkids are probably the max,

It’s the perfect place to curl up and relax,

With a good book in hand and a fluffy pillow,

One could dream of sitting under a weeping willow,

Reminds me of reclining on a raft at the lake,

One could take a long nap, for goodness' sake! 

It wraps around me like a loving soft arm,

Giving me a chair hug- which gives it its charm,

A chair that hugs- now that’s a fine chair!

A chair that hugs is really quite rare!

My papasan chair is my place of retreat,

A place to sit quietly and rest my feet,

A special place to read a daily devotion,

Like an island in the middle of the ocean,

Where all is peaceful, all is calm,

It really is a healing balm,

Next time your day has gone awry,

The papasan chair you should try.
