Moped
“When I turn ninety,
I will drive a moped”
At twenty I playfully joked
But little did I know then
And, that you should never say when,
And, that by the age of fifty
A scooter painted pink
Would come in nifty!

Scooter
“Faster, harder, scooter!”
No, this is not a blooper
And trying not to be a party pooper
But,
This is a vehicle, not a German band
I state, as I here stand

Bike (2)
A ladylike bike
With a basket in front
Will lead you
To a treasure hunt
The ride you’ll enjoy
Even, shouting ahoy
While riding around
Plenty of goodies are found
Soon enough
It’s getting tough
Your basket is full
Up the hill
The bike you pull
Sweaty and thirsty
The bike you’re cursing
But when at the top
You see another shop
Quickly mounting the bike
Because you see what you like
With cool breeze in your hair
You thank to gods of this great fare

Bike
Ride, ride, ride your bike
Where ever you feel and like
Or at least
With this delivery beast
As the delivery clerk
You’ll do the work
And much later
A joyride awaits ya’
But,
If your bike
Will go on a strike
Then what can I say:
You are in for a hike!

Velo-Bike
When you feel like
Your feet are on a strike
Just hop on a Velo-Bike
Motorized fun
Under the sun
No, this is not a pun
Just ride, ride, ride
Your Velo-Bike

Golf Cart
To fool the neighbours
And all other strangers
You hired a cart
Which was quite smart
Added a bag of clubs
Actually some look alike stubs
Hopped inside the vehicle
While the other looked unbelievable
Maybe even a little jealous
Because of this helluva
Trick you made up

Time for Dessert (and Ice Coffee)!
Coffee, with ice, and then some!
Need I say more?
Just keep beating the drum:
Coffee, coffee, coffee
What else in life do you need?
Drink coffee and you shall exceed!
Really?
Yup!

Feta Salads and Something Spicy
After a lengthy shopping spree, time to give the tummy some fuel. What better food for thought, or to eat at lunch, brunch, dinner… Well basically during any type of meal: A plate filled with veggies, fruit and feta cheese. That full plate would scare even my niece!
Meanwhile, admiring the local fruit artist at work, when carving masterpieces into the melons (fresh from the near by farms by the by!). Next step, some decorated lemons!
But, after all this sweet stuff, maybe it’s time for a little puff, and puff you will, huff too, after tasting the spiciest of peppers! Maybe afterwards, a game of checkers?

Dolls and Carpeting!
“Deck the halls with Dolls a hanging,
Fa la la la la la la la!”
All kinds of oddities, amongst these commodities. But what scared me the most,
was not the ghost, of Christmas past, but the barbie like dollies, hanging with faces filled with the jollies!
As the initial shock subsided, I decided, it was time, for some unique furniture. And what better,
than a chair filled with carpets! Who ever thought of that, must have been the smartest!

Sponge Bob’s Cousin and a few Hats
When browsing the market, trying to figure out what to get, for friends and family, to find that sure bet. So, who did we run into, but Sponge Bob’s cousins! And best of it all, you could get them on a dime a dozen! What a big family!
When in Rome, or in this case Kos, try on a trendy hat. Center of the attention you’ll soon be, in good or bad that may be, when people on the street will shout “Won’t you look at that!” But never you mind, just be kind, smile and do a little routine, like Gene.
