“The busy and narrow streets of old town beckons for shopping and whatnot, it’s a warm summer’s day after all!” Gun Roswell
The hustle and bustle The use of the rustle All the customers Lurking about this summer The Market Square The biggest fair This side of town The jewel of the crown Bursting with life Peacefully, without a strife Roaming the stands Even if not a fan You may enjoy the ambiance So come on down and take chance
“Something about nature and going back to it? Pretty and all, that is true!” Gun Roswell
The last of warm days? Before the cold rains again? It is time to prepare But do not despair Summer may be ending The nature surely changing Soon it will be summer, then autumn and winter again But the colours Will be awesome before that will happen!
“Something about looking up towards the skies and about some kind of truth found there? The truth being out there???” Gun Rowell
Blue, darker, black White, greyer, and then black The days are getting shorter The sunlight but a quarter The clouds gathering Soon the sun capturing More rain to be expected Into our souls reflected In the above skies The only truth lies The summer’s end
“Come to the beach, we have warm sand and blue waters here, plus, sunshine all day long!” Gun Roswell
The soft feel, under my hard-felt feet Almost lulls me gently, to a deep state of sleep The sea open wide, right there, in front of me Is so damn blue, it’s like so totally deep
I am not sure if I am dreaming or not Maybe I should not think about it too much Since this sensation currency on me Feels too good to disturb or shake the feel
Going with the currencies wherever this state takes Not worrying too much if the sensations are totally fake This may be a memory of something from the past Or then I simply stepped through a wormhole and ain’t that worth a gasp!
So, for now, I am here, sinking in deeper and deeper The sand feeling warm as the skies are getting so much clearer Deep are the blues both in the ocean and above This is truly the place I have yearned for and now am with utter love
Don’t disturb me, please, while I may or may not be sleeping This time I am in is gently into each and every poor seeping I may be floating in mid air, or just sleeping in my bed instead But what ever this is, leave now and let me here be
“From the busy streets, towards the calm beach, that is the goal in life” Gun Roswell
I see the image in my very mind, it’s something unique, someplace to unwind The colours changing now, from green to a coolest blue, some kind of hue But then, like a sharpened photograph, everything is in my grasp. The shining sun, rising high above, the breeze so low, the pace so slow The turquoise waters glimmering, I wish I could swim in them
I run as fast as I can, then on to the sandy beach I land At this point I don’t care if it is a dream or someone’s bad joke or scheme I shed my clothing, boots and all, and into to the soft waves I let myself fall Getting carried away to the wide open seas, where nothing and no one else do I see Only sounds made are those of seagulls, flying high above my skull
This is bliss, this is calm, this is what I seek, this is what I want And then, I wake up, as the car beside me honks
“Move it of lose it bozo!” I hear
Yes, I am back in the noisy street I fear Until next time, when I dare to dream As life never really is what it seems
“The traveller never gets sick of looking at the vistas of foreign lands, I definitely don’t and looking back at all the pictures taken, I revisit all those places“ Gun Roswell
The days of sunny and warm Spent around the old ruins just after dawn Much to see and plenty to do Especially as the day is getting hotter after noon
But for the enthusiastic traveller There is really nothing to complain rather Enjoying the new vistas and the history Of this place with plenty of stories
And, if you are planning to stay awake Until the late of the event filled day Make sure to make your way to the beach Or basically any open area seat
As the spectacle of the evening Is at that time about to begin The sun setting over the open waters There is really nothing to compare!
So keep on travelling, to strange new places If only in your mind or in a virtual space There is nothing more eye opening When out of your comfort zone staying
“The beach, is empty? What is going on?” Gun Roswell
Finding an empty sun bed On this tine beach end Did not seem so difficult today What a pleasant surprise, I said As I hauled my weary ass Off from the green grass
Into the middle of the sandy beach Choosing the best seat Laying my fat tired head On to the sunny side bed Finally enjoying the peace and quiet As long as anyone will me let
“The cat, a superior being in everyday, trustful, loyal and always polite… wait a minute! That is the description, mostly, of a dog! Oh well, a few white lies never hurt anyone!“ Gun Roswell
The cat who on the street corner sat in a cool looking hat, and with an attitude that of a worldly guide then promised to take the traveller from a far away country, on a tour around the city, as walking around in a new town, could make one totally giddy.
So, hopping on the tiny moped with a cure two seater side car, as it was not supposed to be too fast, because a lot of great things that way could be passed while riding around too wildly, but not today as the cat had promised smiling, to have an easy peasy slow ride and that way, getting to know all those important sights.
But, soon enough, the tourists from a far, noticed the route, had taken a strange sideline and the cat, while in charge of showing its home town to the strangers from beyond, was now actually taking them to an alleyway, where the noises were growing ever more strong.
As the shocked travellers found out where they had landed, on remote alley filled with meowing cats and kittens as there can be. The cat with the hat, the supposed tour guide then once again smiled, this time, wickedly, and simply stated. “We will take you back, but first, there is an extra charge for that to happen. You see, we need our daily fishies and as we are many, and for that, a lot more money is needed as a matter of fact.”
The tourists then glanced around, feeling sorry for the starving crowd. So, without hesitation, they gave all the money they had and with a thanks, the tour then proceeded as promised from then on without worries as the cat with a wide wicked smile, had earned its daily grind fee, feeding all the family, which was never easy. And the earnings from the weary travellers, usually came pretty easily, supporting the cats cause with a gentle feeling.
Well, that was the tale of odd today, the lesson, not very strong, guess if any, then the one of never trusting a smiling cat, unless you are generous enough to feed the whole litter of them.
