A Muskoka Chair

Colourful Muskoka Chairs sitting along the shoreline of a summer lakeview. In Canada, few things are as iconic. These chairs have the ability to provide an escape from the cares of the world. When sitting quietly, we can be immersed into the natural landscape surrounding us.
​A Muskoka Chair signifies:

• eight hours a day on a dock
• dipping toes in the water
• cooking up on a barbecue
• smores beneath starry skies
• hiking and biking, bug spray and sunscreen
• leaving behind the typical and escaping to something simple

Here is a poem I wrote inspired by this artwork and my time away on a holiday:

"Sitting by the water, Worries seem smaller
Waves and wind, Take it all in,
Beautiful sunsets, As close as one gets
Beneath the starry skies, Hearing the crickets' cries
In both daytime and night, The universe seems right
In our Muskoka Chair, We escape a world of care."
