“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 must go in. The fog is rising” EMILY ELIZABETH DICKINSON
Halloween Night on the Bench
Surrounded by misty air
Missed the last fare
Sitting on the park bench
Wishing I had worn a trench
The eerie surroundings
Leaving my heart pounding
Not a soul in sight
On this mystical night
Wrapping my coat tighter
My mood getting lighter
I hear some noises
A car approaches
Finally, I have a ride!
