Seat Sunday in Kos Island
“A table, a chair, a bowl of fruit and a violin; what else does a man need to be happy?” Albert Einstein
Carpet Seat
“Oh look at that carpet in the window:
It looks stuck in a colour overload limbo!”
“Well, have you ever!
A carpet on the seat?
It’s like we are hexed!
What will be next?
Carpets replacing sheet?
Pillows on the floor?
A toilet next to the outdoor?”

Lunch Time
Time for lunch
Possibly even brunch
Find your way
Where all the others stay
No need to pay
Just sit down and for a while stay
Have some chicken
Which is good as finger licking
Maybe afterwards
Some mini cakes quite sticking
Or if you want something healthy
You do not need to be weatlhy
Just grab some melons
Cantaloupe or honey
No, not trying to be funny
It’s all there
Nothing has been spared
For your vacation
Is most important to this station
To make you happy
And maybe later,
Time for a nappy!

Guard Duty
“I am quite alert
Just waiting for my dessert
Because rewards a many
For this work heavy
Do I get
But do not call me
A pet!”

“I am on guard duty
But still I need my sleep of beauty
Some may think I am snooty
But to them I just say
Howdy doody!”

Lazy Days
“Deep deep deep
Do I sleep
Never minding
The passersby
Or at least I am pretending
Until my needs they are tending
Then, maybe
I will give a damn
Just because I can”

Lazy Days
“I am much too tired
To really be bothered
With all these tourists
Luckily, I get nourished
But come on!
Let me just be
I just want to sleep!”

Seat Sunday in Kos Island (One)
All in blue and white
As the principal
Traditional,
But of course
And definitely
Nothing by the Norse
A restaurant or bar
Always near
Never far
When in Greece
No need to sneeze
Because it’s always
Warm and bright
And you may sit
Almost, where ever
You like
Enjoy a meal
With something strong
Or even light
You’re on an island
Time for some smiling
After all
When in Greece!

“Morning comes whether you set the alarm or not.” Ursula K. Le Guin
Early Morning on a Saturday for the Daily Post
Too early
Airport calling
Surely
You wouldn’t want to
Miss the flight
It took so long
And one
Sleepless night
To get there
Where ever
You now wanted
To go
Breathe in
Breathe out
Let the morning air
Cool and thin
Hitting your skin
Clear all doubt
For soon
Sea and sun
Will replace
The mundane
And it’s not even
A Monday!
Get the pun?

Ancient Kamiros
Gun’s travel log, stardate: Greece, Kamiros EET (GMT +3)
Kamiros (/kəˈmaɪərəs/; Greek: Κάμειρος) is an ancient city on the island of Rhodes, in the Dodecanese, Greece. It lies on the northwest coast of the island, three kilometres west of the village of Kalavarda.
This archaeological site contains ruins of the Hellenistic and Roman city of Kameiros together with the neighboring necropolis, which although first discovered in 1859 was mainly excavated during the Italian occupation of the island (1912-1943). Of the classical city, only the façade of a late classical fountain and some walls from the agora (market) remain.
The settlement was constructed on three separate levels of the hill. At the bottom was the first terrace with public buildings, market and temples, then on the second terrace was the main settlement and finally in a dominant position at the top of the hill was the acropolis with the Temple of Athena Kameirados (6th century BC), a reminder of the former wealth and historic significance of this ancient city.
