chair dozing

Some reasons we elders doze in chairs:

It just happens.

Don't want to walk all the way to the bed.

Bed is for the invalid and one still feels valid.

Can awaken and take up that book where one left off.

Practice.

The unrelenting pull of gravity.

Exhausted from putting on clothes and shoes.

Resting one's eyes for a moment.

Blissful silence due to hearing aids out.

Memories.
