Inspiration Behind The “Women in Chairs” Series
chairs female form Motherhood nursing Portraits rest women in chairs
THE PATIENCE OF ORDINARY THINGSby Pat Schneider It is a kind of love, is it not?How the cup holds the tea,How the chair stands sturdy and foursquare,How the floor receives the bottoms of shoesOr toes. How soles of feet knowWhere they’re supposed to be.I’ve been thinking about the patienceOf ordinary things, how clothesWait respectfully in closetsAnd soap dries quietly in the dish,And towels drink the wetFrom the skin of the back.And the lovely repetition of stairs.And what is more generous than a window? ~ from Another River: New and Selected Poems (Amherst Writers & Artists Press, 2005)
