It’s a soothing thing
Our front porch swing
The back-and-forth motion
Like the sway of an ocean
The conversations taking place
As you swing, keeping pace
Visitors will come and go
While Big Sister sits and sews
Always content to Share a seat
With neighbors across the street
Sitting, rocking
A little bit of talking
Come on over and sit a spell
Share your secrets; I won’t tell
You’ll find the experience calms you down
And puts a smile on your face instead of a frown
