Last month, we shared love stories, and in this microburst episode, we explore the love for an artifact that embodies the feeling of home for a little girl. This is an excerpt from the book Flight of the Tocororo, and it starts with a brief memory.

The Rocking Chair

I don’t remember the heat of summer

nor the coolness brought by the rain.

But I can still feel the strength of your oak frame rocking me, the curve and sloping details of your armrests, and even the little indentation where your joints met.

I’ll come for you.

Soon.
