By the sunniest of seashores


“The summer is the best time to get to the beach and enjoy the sunshine with the calming waves, nature and all that!” Gun Roswell

I still remember
That one September
The bluest of skies
And it was warmer than July
The water clear and inviting
The air soft and delighting
Not a worry in sight
Everything quite right
In the distance
For an instance
A boat or two
Disappearing from the view
Most tourists already gone
Leaving us alone
Enjoying in peace
With a short lease
The last rays of summer

Triptych of the outdoors


“There are always three of them, aren’t there!” Gun Roswell

Not saving any ink
Painted all in pink
The houses stand tall
Winter, Spring, Summer and Fall
In the harbour
From port to starboard
Yes, it’s a fort
Having stood there for a time very long

Staycation – Summer in Suburbia (once again)

“Is this the end of a vacay? nope, but soon there will be more of the same!” Gun Roswell


Soft, fluffy, made by nature
Concrete, metal, made by creatures
Coming together in an image
A compilation quite vivid

Staycation – Summer in Suburbia (monochrome)

“The forrest is a cool place to visit, plenty of them all around” Gun Roswell


A vintage shot from way back when?
It seems to be repeating
Every now and again
Could it be, from the future then?

Staycation – Summer in Suburbia (reflected)

“Sometimes, the need to take some time to reflect is upon, even during a staycation” Gun Roswell



Summer, clouds reflected
Daily routines, neglected
Mind and body effected
By the big yellow light
Shining, high up in the skies

Staycation – Summer in Suburbia (more)

“A game of mini-golf? Well, why not?” Gun Roswell


Summer fun in the near by shopping centre
Bring your mom, dad and even the family spectre
Walk, hike or drive your car
It’s really not that very far

But heed this warning who ever you are:
Once the place of madness you enter
You may end up on a shopping bender
Give away your money and shirt
And later, with a big bill of hurt!

Staycation – Summer in Suburbia (again)

“You gotta try out the museums, plenty of them around the hood!” Gun Roswell


Visiting, a local library or museum
Even, if it’s not so usual for this season
Someone, may call it treason
Retorting, ‘stay outdoors you silly beeson’
But live and learn your history
Other wise you may not have a story!

Staycation – Summer in Suburbia (continued)

“You go, check out what’s all around you, close to the home you normally dwell in!” Gun Roswell


It is the time, for playing games
It is the time, for naming names
It is the time, to lay our claims
It is the time, which after nothing remains
Ever the same
This is the summer’s game

Staycation – Summer in Suburbia


“Staying home for a vacation? What a novelty?!?” Gum Roswell

Summer days in suburbia
Might end up in utter hysteria
With neighbours, staring at you
Simply, because there is nothing to do

Staycation – A Summer in Suburbia 

“Sometimes, you don’t have to leave home to get on a trip, as there is plenty to explore all around the hood” Gun Roswell


When exploring all the unknown places
Watching for any unexplored traces
What ever may come, we’ll gladly embrace it
