“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!

“I don’t want to be a passenger sitting on the bench not doing much, even in my older years”
Frank Lampard

Office Home and Away for Seat Sunday

A seat in the sun
Office life, filled with fun
But wouldn’t you rather
Dig around and discover
What secrets are hidden
Even though it may be forbidden
At least during office hours?

Office Home and Away for Seat Sunday

A home office seat
Far a way from the heat
A quaint little corner
Filled with four borders
A room filled with order
No place for the explorer
But hard work
By the wage earner

Dreaming in Black and White for Seat Sunday

“It's a cute little studio apartment that has just what I need:
 a bed, a couch, a table, a chair, and a coffee-maker.”
 ― Shawn Lukas

Dreaming in Black and White for Seat Sunday

In technicolour dreaming
You sometimes wake up screaming
Do not struggle or fight
Turn off all colours
And soon, the soothing
Of Black and White
Will dim down the lights

Dreaming in Colour for Seat Sunday

In the middle of the night
Just when you thought you missed that flight
Just when you thought it could not get more duller
Dreams vivid, and in full colour

A seat, in summer, poolside
All the nightmares, can now, subside

Take a Seat in Suomenlinna for Seat Sunday

“When in Finland, sit like the Finns do”

Seat in the Sunshine

Basking in the sunshine
Older seats created, before my time
Sit down, you’ll feel just fine
Relaxing is great, once in a while
Before you know it, your face in a smile
A memory lasting into your file

Take a Seat in Suomenlinna for Seat Sunday

“When in Finland, sit like the Finns do”

Seat in the Shadow

Hidden, from prying eyes
Passersby, never realize
How very near, yet so far
These cozy and comfy seats are

Seat Sunday in Kos Island

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

Afternoon Snack

A warm afternoon
Finding a seat,
Before I swoon
Feeling quite beat
Needed a drink
When I noticed the pink…

Red, yellow, blue and green
So many colours have I ever seen
Recycled materials
Making me curious
So sitting down
Having a little chow
Enjoying the ambiance
And fitting in the camouflage

Carpet Seat

“Oh look at that carpet in the window:
It looks stuck in a colour overload limbo!”

“Well, have you ever!
A carpet on the seat?
It’s like we are hexed!
What will be next?
Carpets replacing sheet?
Pillows on the floor?
A toilet next to the outdoor?”

Lunch Time

Time for lunch
Possibly even brunch
Find your way
Where all the others stay
No need to pay
Just sit down and for a while stay
Have some chicken
Which is good as finger licking
Maybe afterwards
Some mini cakes quite sticking
Or if you want something healthy
You do not need to be weatlhy
Just grab some melons
Cantaloupe or honey
No, not trying to be funny
It’s all there
Nothing has been spared
For your vacation
Is most important to this station
To make you happy
And maybe later,
Time for a nappy!
