Dads Chair

6/6/2010

I went to see Mom and I sat in Dad’s chair
I sat in the car seat where Dad used to steer
I sat at the table where they both would say grace
In the meeting I sat in what once was his space

We sang and we talked like she and Dad did
We remembered his jokes and how he would kid
I opened her door and held her kind arm
While walking down stairs, to keep her from harm

I kind of look like him, our eyes are the same
He gave me his humor and he gave me his name
The people who loved him are so nice to me
I remind them of him, and of what used to be

So I cheer up my Mom so she won’t get the blues
But I know oh so well, that I can’t fill his shoes

 I wrote Dad’s chair when I was at Saginaw Convention with Mom. Between a couple of the meetings, I started it and then I finished it after we got back home that night. It was very impressive how many people came up to me and thanked me for being there with Mom. Also, many people came up and talked about Dad and how much they missed him. They would tell little stories about him and it was really special.

For years, the executive leather office chair has been depicted as the epitome of class, success, prestige, and wealth. Look at almost any TV show or movie that features an office figure that is looked up to and admired and take a look at what kind of chair they are sitting in. The vast majority of the time the chair they are sitting in is a leather office chair. Even just imagining a leather office chair, the first person that comes to my mind when I think who would be sitting in it would be some high powered executive. Although notoriously reputable and sought after, leather office chairs like any other kind of chair comes with both advantages and disadvantages.

Waiting area seating is chairs, lounges, and benches, designed for people to sit on in public and private areas. Each business that designs an area for customers to sit and wait for service have different designs of waiting area seating in mind.
