Seat Sunday (2016-07-24)

“When in Cyprus, sit like the cypriots do”

Sitting, People Watching

On the seaside
By the roadside
As time slowly
Passes me by

Watching
Observing
Recording

Conversations,
Word exchanges
Life

Of the passers-by

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!”

“I don’t want to be a passenger sitting on the bench not doing much, even in my older years” Frank Lampard

Seat Sunday

I have followed the yellow brick road
And it led me to this humble abode
Surrounded by a picket fence
And a green grass oh so dense

Now I am stationed here for all eternity
The yellow bricks stacked behind me
Grass growing tall, reaching to infinity
The inhabitants enjoying me occasionally

Maybe this is the place I will settle
And every day brew me tea in a kettle
I may be made out of wood and metal
But I can be quite sentimental

I am a special bench
Possibly made by the French
Sometimes in the drain I drench
Still, I am quite the mensch 😉

“I had three chairs in my house; one for solitude, two for friendship, three for society” Henry David Thoreau

Seat in a hideaway for Seat Sunday

In the farthest corner
Of the suburbian border
A secret garden resides
Far away from prying eyes
Seek it and maybe you will find
A tranquil respite for a while

“I had three chairs in my house; one for solitude, two for friendship, three for society” Henry David Thoreau

Green for Seat Sunday

On the busy road side
In the green grass
Trying to hide
The bench from the past
Forever it will last

-Provided of course, no one will find it!

Red for Seat Sunday

Little red shiny chair
Basking in the sun’s flare
“Take a seat in me if you dare”

“I have a great desire to serve humanity without ever actually getting off my chair” Cyrus Broacha

Royal Chair (Seat Sunday)

A seat worthy
Even of royalty
Try it on for size
You may be surprised
And want one to buy!

“Haven’t you felt a peculiar sort of worry about the chair in your living room that no one sits in?” Nicholson Baker

Find a Respite

After all the exploration
You might need a safe haven
A little time for reflection
Of the days events taken

Smell the Flowers

While in the wild
Who knows what you can find
Pretty flowers
Some of them one of a kind
