“A throne is only a bench covered with velvet” Napoleon Bonaparte “But if it’s done really properly, with softness, gold and love, then it is a throne!” Gun Roswell
Seated in Cyprus
A single seat?
Or one designed for two?
In this heat
Who could want to be glued
To someone else’s skin
With clothes this thin
“Because it’s a seat, right?” Gun Roswell
Seated in Cyprus
A stroll in the heat of summer
Looking for a place to recover
Taverns and restaurants beckoning
A cold drink for thirst lessening
“Even for me life had its gleams of sunshine” Charlotte Brontë, Jane Eyre
Basking in the Sun
The working day has begun
Must admit it, just no fun
Looking out the window
Seeing cold weather and snow
Just for a moment
My mind wanders
Back to holidays
Back to the time
When I was
Basking in the sun
“Travel the world to the ancient past, to meet up with some interesting characters” Gun Roswell
The Charioteer of Delphi
The boy with a chariot
With a look so serious
Horses as beasts of burden
He may be a rich man’s servant
But driving with fervency
Loving his chariot passionately
“When the working days get to be too much, it is time for some travel, well, at least virtual travel” Gun Roswell
Travel Time (virtually so)
The old snap shots of the days spent in the sun
When time stalled and we all had so much fun
The memories might be bigger and much brighter
Than the actual time spent days poolside none the wiser
Of things yet to follow in our near future
Where not only the body but also the mind, needed a few sutures
Despite the four walls us having confined
Deep down in the minds, travelling far behind this daily grind
Taking the moments to lift the torments
And dwelling in those fun times where all was till fine
Might seem frivolous to some, but pardon the pun
There so much the imagination can do
If you only believe and then choose yourself in the memory to loose
And to set aside all the bad feelings in this times and try to find
That this type of travel the virtual kind, can be almost as much fun
As the real thing, almost, as it is only there, in your own mind
“There really is nothing more fabulous on a Mundane Monday, than a nicely set dinner, with some mood giving candlelight” Gun Roswell
Candlelight and Dinner
Even, if it may not be that special of a day, which comes at the end of the week, a Sunday
Still, dinner, in quite good company, great food and add to that , some candles shining the light
It can be most certainly, the very completely unexpected highlight
Of this odd day, which is, today, a very plain and totally mundane, Monday
“The single most important component
of a camera is the twelve inches behind it.”

Travelling around the island
In the colours of black and white
What could be more inspiring
Or feeling more right

The Sunset
Time to calm down and watch the sunset beyond the horizon.
The sun is finally setting
It is the time of forgetting
Settling in for the night
No time for fright or flight
Gently lulling to sleep
Into the thoughts deep
Before waking to a new day
Ready for come what ever may
