    1. The poem describes a vacant chair where a loved one used to sit and discusses how their absence is felt. 2. Memories of time spent with the loved one linger on, soothing the pain of loss. 3. Though sad to be apart from the loved one, their spirit lives on in memories that will be revisited often with affection.
