“In a window seat on a plane to nowhere”

Seat by the Seashore (Seat Sunday 2016-01-24) Three

The sun’s shadows of tall
Cast on to the stone wall
Enjoying a moment of silence
In an instant quite timeless
Loosing all defiance
On this frozen
Snow covered bench

The sun is shining
The birds are flying
The air is frozen
This spot I’ve chosen
A seat in the sun

The sea is frozen
So don’t dip your toes in
Unless you are a dare devil
Meanwhile,
Enjoy the scenery
On a bench near the sea

“The best seat in the house”

Snowy Seat 

It may be cold outside
With lots of frosted snow
But as the sun comes from its hide
You need to take it slow
Take a seat for a while
Even if it’s not your style
And simply enjoy with a smile

“A table, a chair, a bowl of fruit and a violin; what else does a man need to be happy?”
Albert Einstein

A Seat fit for a Queen

A royal chair look-alike
A regular seat in disguise
A very clever ploy
For this seatly decoy

“When I was a kid, the only way I saw movies was from the back seat of my family’s car at the drive-in” Forest Whitaker

Sunny Side of the Bench

On the sunny side of the bench
No option of getting drenched
Enjoying the long, warming rays
In these unworried and lazy days

Before the days are done
Soaking in the healing sun
With closed eyes this moment
Like an image in my mind burnt

“Take a load off”

Time Out (Seat Sunday)

Sitting silently
Watching
People pass by
I ama
Out of time
Floating
In a bubble
As I am sitting
On my bench
Watching
Life happen
Trying
Not to flinch

“I don’t generally like running. I believe in training by rising gently up and down from the bench” Satchel Paige

A Bench to Sit on

I was looking for
A bench to sit on
What I hoped to score
Something close to a lawn
To lay my tired self
On a softer shelf

Then I saw it
The bench, made of stone
When I tried to sit
I felt it to my bones
Too hard for a fit!

Moving forward
I found one, made of wood
Maybe it wasn’t hard
Rather suitably good
Too soft for a fit!

So once again
I had to complain
But I knew, the right seat
Was just in reach
I just had to seek

A little while longer
As I moved along
The feeling now stronger
I knew it wouldn’t be long
I was close to finding
As I saw the metal shining

I finally found it
A bench made of metal
For me to sit
Soft as a petal
A purr-fect fit

“I took a back seat and did whatever it took for the team to win” James Harden

Take A Seat

Break the beat
And take a seat
Which one do you prefer?
You have been given three options this week
Are these something
To your liking
Or other types you seek?
The old wooden bench
Which has seen better times
The chair in the cafe
During a busy day
Or the comfy fluffy recliner
There is really no denying her
She is quite the tempting one

“Superman don’t need no seat belt” Muhammad Ali

Market Trip

Took a quick trip
To the market
Almost flipped
Near the target
Needed a sit
Before the bargain
Charging circuits
To get things started
With all my wit
And whole hearted

Ready for fighting
For the bargain
In the discount market
