“Take a load off, head to the beach, see what’s there for free!” Gun Roswell
Surfers on the Dunes
Surfer dudes With attitudes “No landlubbers allowed There is no monkeying around! This is serious business With a touch of impulsiveness! If you want to join Let me just flip this coin: Heads or tails You know, this never fails: You are in!”
“It’s beginning to look a lot like Fall, the Autumn of it all in nature” Gun Roswell
Two, One, None
It started with a few Then there were two Only remaining A single one Nothing to be done The time for Winter Has finally come As soon, there will be None
“Thorny! As I pricked my delicate skin on the slender stem, but the petals are gorgeous!” Gun Roswell
Thorny yet graceful
The pretty colour truly beckoned To approach and then I reckoned To maybe dare and touch it As it simply looked so delicious But, despite the tempting colours And the most heavily odour There was a downside there as well Because when I leaned for it close enough to smell And reached for the silken petals to linger I accidentally pricked my poor finger On the sharp as a knife like thorns Wishing this beautify would not have shown its horns So now, bleeding, I stand here seething But cannot help but admire The gorgeous rose of a flower Who simply defended itself Against this big humans eager offence
“Something certainly rattling up there… Could it be… a thought perhaps?” Gun Roswell
This little Brain o’ Mine
This, tiny, useful brain of mine Thinks, it is, doing just fine It keeps on going and going and going Even though my body yearns for slowing Down at night, well… sometimes And some other times Too needs, to rewind
So, I ask you nicely Please be kind Shut down Every once in a while Let me sleep Dream real deep And maybe a later I will reward you with a nice state of Quiz and debate
“Romantic, or just absolutely fantastic, when on a boat ride at low tide, during the setting sun” Gun Roswell
Boat ride on a low tide
On a river, the wind making me quiver But only slightly, as I am still smiling My best person at my very side And the setting sun, painting the skies This moment certainly could not get any better
The slow hum of the vessel’s engines Serving as music of the angels For the small group of travellers Who had been lucky to get a ride Across the dark and mystical river At the end of a perfect day full of adventure
Soon it would be totally dark Only light to guide our path would be the stars But for now, the show by the sun Was the utmost and complete fun And the promised dinner at a local haunt Was soon becoming in full view at the front
Steering the vessel to the end of a short pier Even in the darkened night there was nothing to fear The laughter of al the passengers sharing a joke Filling the night air, by the time of dock Debarking the small boat and a short walk later Seated at the restaurant, with drinks and food on plater
The perfect night, with perfect company to spend Life as I know it could not get better, until eventually l this all has to end
That moment of blue soon to descend When the sun on the sea finally lands Having been watching, waiting, hoping Only for the darkness and the blues The blues in so many coloured hues Upon the small me to blend
“Blue like the wide clear ocean, blue like the highest skies, as is my memory in motion” Gun Roswell
Blue in complete motion
The ocean, turned to a cool blue As if deriving it from the sky’s hue The sun was still shining Us towards nature entwining
It was a perfect of blues for us few Who had felt the presence of the colour And then smelling its eternal odour For our whole lives having been revolving around blue
And now it was once again beckoning Us toward the total most reckoning Being united with the blue Now and forever feeling the true blue hues
