Seat Sunday (2016-07-24)
“When in Cyprus, sit like the cypriots do”
Sitting on the Curve
As I am
Sitting on the curve
And watching
The cars swerve
It’s getting difficult
To keep my nerve

Seat Sunday (2016-07-24)
“When in Cyprus, sit like the cypriots do”
Sitting with lots of Stuff
It’s meal time
But, the table
Is not fine
Lots of stuff
Laying about
With a huff
Giving a shout
“Oi, you!
Get here
Ass in tow
Clear your grime!”
“Didn’t you hear the chime?
It’s nearly din din time,
And, my patience
Is running low
And, as far as I know
These ‘antiques’
Are just for show”
“So,
Unless you got
Something eatable
In that pot
Off with the lot
I have to put
Some grub
On the table!”
“Shut up,
Sit down
And enjoy
Your meal!”

Time for Shopping
Time for shopping?
But of course
And we do until
We are dropping!
But,
Coffee first!

People of all Sorts
The lady with her dog
Was looking for a grog
The taxi had already gone
So she decided to sit on the log
The dude is a statue
He was quite the virtue
Now with a seagull
He seems a little dull

By the Water Fountain
By the old water fountain
Because I did not want to
Climb the tallest mountain!

Market Square
“Fresh fish,
Get you fresh fish here,
Catch of today
On your plate won’t stay!”
“Sausages,
Fresh boiled sausages
Made from reindeer
Don’t worry dear
Rudolf not included!”
“I-iice cream,
Come and get some i-iice cream,
Cold and cooling
If you need the smoothing!”

Ye Old Shopping Mall
What ever your heart may desire…
Well, then you’ve come to the wrong place
But we do like to cater to the buyer
In this old historic space
They commonly call
The Market Hall

Harbour Area
A slow boat to Sweden
Or a catamaran to Tallinn
If you are looking for Eden
Well, maybe
But you better be all in!

The beast of burden
Is quite determined
To haul its cargo
From here to Fargo

Little convertible
You are so flexible
And very transportable
But even still
The genuine article
A bike is a bike
Of course, of course!
